Yubune Forest Park 湯船森林公園

Official explanation

Yubune Forest Park is a popular location for both residents and visitors to enjoy picnicking, mountain biking, autumn mushroom picking, and other outdoor activities. Entry to the park costs ¥500 for adults and ¥200 for small children.

The shallow river running through the park is ideal for cooling off during the summer months and is safe for wading. The aroma of meat and vegetables grilling on sizzling coals fills the designated barbeque area, where families and friends gather to share a meal and socialize. Visitors can reserve barbeque spots and rent grilling equipment at the small office by the parking lot.
