"Chikyu no Tani" is a new area opened in April 2025. There are new observation spots such as "Wind Wheel Terrace", "Ibuki no Dekki", and "Ozora no Banks". You can enjoy the unprecedented view of Owakudani. There are plenty of shopping and eating and drinking, such as "Tani no Marche", which sells souvenirs and sweets drinks, and "Iwa no Subenchi", which is perfect for a break. It is an area full of charm where you can enjoy Owakudani more.

Immediately after getting off, let's enjoy the exquisite view of Owakudani from the observation spot at the station square. After completing the walk around the area, you can buy souvenirs at the "Marche of the Valley" on the first floor of the station, and then return by the ropeway.

Pounding on the glass scaffolding! View spot to feel the breath of the earth directly

The three observation spots are rich in character. The "Wind Wheel Terrace", spread over the square in front of the station, is a circular terrace with a central stairwell. The wind blowing through 360 ° C from the top, bottom, left and right is comfortable, and you can experience it as if it is integrated with nature. "Deck of breath" if you want to taste the thrill. The floor of the deck, which protrudes about 11m toward the bottom of the valley, is glazed, and the feet look full! There is no doubt that you will be pounded by the illusion of standing in a lumpy rock face or a blowout. In addition to being able to see the ropeway in close proximity on the banks of the Ozora, you can also view the buildings in Sagami Bay and central Tokyo on a good day.

The bottom of the bottle is in the shape of Mt. Fuji!?

Located on the first floor of Owakudani Station, "Valley Marche" features a large array of goods from Owakudani, sweets from Hakone, and souvenirs. If you are looking for souvenirs that look like Owakuya, why are you going to have a special Owakuya specialty ''Owakuya Curry (600 yen)'' or a limited design ''Tenugui towel (700 yen)'' with a specialty of Owakuya?

In addition, if you want to purchase items of memories of travel, "Fujisan recommended bottle (550 yen)" is the best choice. The bottom of the plastic bottle is Mt. Fuji-shaped, and the concept of ''containment and bring back Mt. Fuji that can be seen from Hakone'' is interesting! "Chikyu Valley" is an original product, a rare item that can only be bought here. "Fujisan Acrylic Bottle Cap with Stand (300 yen)" for decorating plastic bottles has also been deployed in nine colors.

After enjoying the scenery and the walk, take a break with sweets and drinks of "Marche of the Valley". Sweets such as the original soft serve (600 yen), which uses tea from the foot of Hakone, and "Tanimar Muffin (600 yen)," which carries a cream that looks like a plume, help to heal fatigue. Let's try different types of drinks such as "Valais soda" using tea soda and red grapefruit, and "Geonade" with black jelly with lemon flavor. Terrace seats and benches are provided indoors and outside, so it is recommended to take a break while enjoying the view.

Enjoy the Owakuya gourmet! The special curry of "Owakuya Station Canteen" that can overlook Owakuya is popular

If you have a gourmet Owakuya, go to the Owakuya Station cafeteria on the second floor of Owakuya Station! It is one of the view spots where you can enjoy a full view of the Owakudani smoke area and enjoy a meal while watching the view. The recommendation is "Special" Owakudani Curry ", which has been familiar with the same taste since it opened. The spiced Japanese-style soup-based roux is exquisite, and there are plenty of variations such as cutlet curry and curry udon. Alcohol and soft drinks are also available, so make a stop for a meal or break.
