Hachimantai Dragon Eye (Kagami-numa)

Appi Kogen Farm

The whole family can enjoy activities such as the fishing pond, maze, and making Baumkuchen using southern wheat and Appi Kogen milk. At the cafe terrace, ``Ranch Pizza'' made with the ranch's homemade cheese is popular.

Yakehashiri Lava Flow (Nationally Designated Special Natural Monument)

Mt. Iwate has erupted about five times in its history, most recently in 1732, and was 3km long and 1.5km wide from the spout to the end. Black, hardened lava is piled up on the northeastern slope of Mt. Iwate, making it difficult for plants to grow in this area.

One cherry tree in Tamenai

A single cherry tree blooms heavily on a small hill overlooking Mt. Iwate in the distance. When the shrine was relocated, this cherry tree, which was the only one left in the area where the shrine once stood, blooms beautifully every year and is a sight to behold. It is not known when it was planted, but it is thought that it was a sacred tree. It has become widely known as the filming location for the movie "Operetta Tanuki Goten" starring Joe Odagiri, and cherry blossom viewing visitors come from inside and outside the prefecture. On a clear day, the contrast with the blue sky is spectacular! *This is private property, so please be careful when entering the area.
