Kuzumaru River Stream

Upstream of the Kuzumaru River, which flows into the Kitakami River, there is a mountain stream that flows out of the mountainous area of ​​the Ou Mountains. The 6km long mountain stream is home to scenic spots such as Ichi-no-taki Falls and Mitsubura, and offers beautiful scenery throughout the year, making it perfect for bird watching, forest bathing, mountain stream fishing, and autumn foliage viewing. [Best time to see autumn leaves] Late October to early November

Roadside station “Hayachine”

The roadside station "Hayachine" is located at the foot of Mt. Hayachine and overlooking Lake Hayachine. In addition to rest facilities, there is a corner displaying records of exchanges with sister city Berndorf, Austria, the Osako Yamamura Cultural Exchange Center, a park, and a corner selling specialty products.

Yakushidake

Many people use the course to climb Mt. Yakushi (1,645m) on the south side, which is the opposite of the route from Odagoshi to Mt. Hayachine. Although the climb is almost direct, the mountainside is generally gentle. You can see granite outcroppings and light moss under the rocks in the forest zone of Aomori fir and other trees. As the tree height decreases, the forest zone changes to Japanese pine. Approximately 300 meters from the top of the mountain, there is a spectacular view of Seiwahige growing on the granite. There is also a course for descending the mountain that goes directly east from the summit and leads to Otagoshi Sanso.
