A multi-purpose hillside park where nature, culture, and sports come together. Its Approx. 375-hectare grounds are divided into zones such as the Sports Forest, Music Forest, and Culture Forest, with the 3 km-long Sky Road running through the center of the park to connect them. The Sky Train that runs along the Sky Road is popular as an attraction that also doubles as transportation within the park, and visitors can also tour the grounds by using the Cycling Center and Cycle Land.

The park is also known as a flower-viewing spot, with a plum grove in spring, hydrangeas blooming from the rainy season into summer, and rows of ginkgo trees turning golden in autumn, delighting visitors with seasonal flowers and trees throughout the year. Cultural facilities such as a music hall and outdoor stage, along with artistic spaces like the Fountain of the Muse and the Grand Garden, add to the park’s unique atmosphere where nature and culture blend together.

Outdoor experiences are another highlight, with activities for both children and adults, including Forest Adventure, where you can try crossing bridges and ziplining through the woods, and Soto Asobi no Mori, where you can enjoy buggy rides and shooting games.

    Huge! The whole park is full of greenery, and the air feels so fresh.
    It’s perfect for a walk, a picnic, or a light jog. On a nice day, the scenery is gorgeous, and you can even see the mountains in the distance.
    There are rides, a camping area, slides, bike paths, and pretty much everything else, so it’s great for families or couples who want to relax.
    If you visit in the fall, you can also see the autumn leaves, which makes the atmosphere even better.
    That said, the park really is pretty big, so I’d recommend wearing comfortable shoes!
