Facilities include an auto-camping site, canoeing, park golf, and athletic playgrounds, making it a hub for outdoor recreation.
The walking trails around the ponds are a highlight, with Nishiki Konuma offering a 1.6 km loop and Nishiki Onuma a 3.5 km course. Depending on the route, the walk takes between 20 to 50 minutes, with picturesque bridges and viewing platforms to admire the surrounding nature.
