The Aki River (also, the Akikawa River)[1] is a river in Japan.[2][3] The Aki River flows west of Tokyo Metropolitan Area. It is a major tributary of the Tama River,[4][5] The Japanese name, 秋川, means "Autumn River."[6][7]

Aki River
Akigawa Gorge, in the autumn. Near, but west of Tokyo.
Native name	秋川 (Japanese)

The words Akigawa River sound a bit odd, as kawa and gawa, 川, are Japanese words for river,[8][9] so Aki River makes more sense, or simply Akigawa, perhaps Akikawa.

The river's source

The Akigawa has a north fork and a south fork,[10] but the river's source is in the Chichibu Tama Kai National Park.[11]

Course of the river

The Akigawa flows through the towns of Akiruno and Hinohara,[12] and through Kanagawa and Tokyo Prefectures.^{[citation needed]}

Recreation area

The river's gorge is a popular recreation area.
