Takino Suzuran Hillside Park

This is a wonderful destination at any time of year. In the winter season, entry to the park is free and includes two long slope rubber tube rides which are really fun. Near the base of the slope are facilities for kids to play (including toilets and drinks machines). In summer time, much more of the park is open, and a modest entry fee is charged. There are many areas to explore, and lots of outdoor activities such as mountain bike riding and hiking. There are many highly creative play areas for kids, as well as a restaurant. On a fine day in summer it is also a very popular BBQ area, with ash disposal facilities and trailers for hauling your gear around. Many kids play in and around to cool burbling stream on a hot day. If you're visiting by public transport, a bus from Makomanai subway station will take you there. I want to go back here. #2024wish
