Related Spots

Fruit Line

A drive route extending from Kasugai-cho, Fuefuki to Katsunuma-cho, Koshu. There are many tourist plantations along the road, and you can enjoy picking grapes and cherries from early summer to autumn. Also, I want to pay attention to the night drive. The night view of Isawa area that can be seen while driving should enhance the romantic mood. Also popular as a cycling course using road bikes in recent years.

Nishizawa Valley Promenade

A walking promenade along the valley. You can see waterfalls big and small. Spring rhododendrons, fresh greens and autumn foliage are particularly stunning. Around three hours and 30 minutes around.

Nishizawa Valley Observation Deck

A great resting point with a view of the mountains across the other side. Also seeing large clusters of rhododendrons around May. Autumn foliage is also great.

Panorama platform

An observation site at an altitude of 1325m, rising between Seisin Lake and Motosu Lake. Both lakes and Mt. Fuji can be seen as well as Lake West and Lake Kawaguchi, and in the distance from the Kofu basin to the Southern Alps. There is a hiking course from the west bank of Seisan Lake to the shores of Lake Motosu, which climbs the panorama platform and follows the ridge path to the south. About 2 hours 30 minutes walk.

Woodpecker Campground Embraced by Nature

A quiet campground surrounded by larch trees, close to the Yatsugatake Highlands. With a wide range of rental camping and barbecue equipment (excluding tents), even beginners can enjoy authentic auto camping. Events combining various experience classes are also popular. A campground centered around families, couples, and solo campers.

Sandaikousha Fureai no Sato

A popular spot utilizing school buildings from the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa eras. The old schoolyard spreads out in front, and the school's cherry blossoms are famous in the city. The Tsugane School (Meiji Building), built in 1875 in a pseudo-Western style, has been restored and designated as a tangible cultural asset of Yamanashi Prefecture, serving as the historical museum of Hokuto City. The Taisho Hall (TEL: 0551-20-7200) is an experience facility for group reservations. The delicious school of the Showa building (TEL: 0551-20-7300) offers accommodation and day-use bathing facilities, with popular school lunch and bakery bread. Dining with pets is allowed on the terrace. The direct sales store for agricultural products features the specialty Tsugane apples (November), vegetables, and locally produced wine.
