Kuzumaki Forest Park

Kuzumaki Kogen Farm

You can experience working on a farm, such as taking care of calves and sheep. The farm also has a ``Milk House'' where you can try your hand at making ice cream, as well as lodging facilities ``Plateau'' and ``Cottage.'' The adjacent Kuzumaki-cho Forest Park is a park at 40 degrees north latitude surrounded by white birch trees, and also has a campground. In July, there is a lavender garden viewing event where you can even pick lavender.

Woody Forest Hall/Charcoal Science Museum

A wooden community facility with the theme of "interaction between trees, greenery, and culture." You can fully enjoy the goodness of wood with its unique structure. Inside, there is a ``charcoal science museum'' where you can see everything from the charcoal manufacturing process to the future, as well as a direct sales store for ``Kuzumaki wine,'' where you can sample wine. There are promenades and orienteering courses in the surrounding area, making it the perfect place for walks and forest bathing.

Hiraniwa Kogen

Located 800 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mt. Hiranwa, which straddles Kuzumaki Town and Kuji City, the vast Hiranwa Kogen is a scenic area designated as a prefectural natural park. It is a plateau where you can enjoy nature to the fullest all year round, starting with wetland plants such as the messenger of spring, the Japanese katakuri, to the dazzling green white birch forest in early summer, azaleas blooming all over the plateau, autumn leaves, and skiing in winter.
