Lake Tanzawa (丹沢湖 Tanzawa-ko?), is a lake located to the east of Mt. Fuji in Yamakita town, Ashigarakami district, in the Kanagawa Prefecture of Japan. It was created due to construction of the Miho dam in 1978. The lake and its surroundings are frequently visited during fall to admire autumn colors.
