Children Play Area

If you experiment a little bit with your route when walking to michi-no-eki, you may find a little unkept path leading up the ridge . After about 2 minutes, you can walk on a better kept path, and enjoy a nice view on the village on the other side of the valey (Tateiwa) and the hills beyond.

This is a little resting place that can be used to just take a break, or have a snack.



If you turn down left a little behind this place, you reach the big roller slide. This is brilliant for kids and papas!





Unless you want to receive a thorough massage of your buttocks, I recommend using a piece of card board, to sit on.

At the end of this slide there is a Children's play area, including a big Jungle Gym,


And once you and the little angels have exhausted themselves, you just pop into the Onsen which is conveniently located at the same site, overseeing the play area.

Bigger kids will also find a Basketball Court here, and a larger flat, grass covered area ideally suited to play frisbee.
