Forest of Creation Yokoyama

Shima is the land of forest

There is a rest house in the Yokoyama Forest of Creation in the middle of Yokoyama, and several walking trails are maintained from the rest house to the top of the mountain.
Yokoyama is famous for its cherry blossoms, and the Yokoyama Cherry Blossom Festival (held on the last Sunday in March and the first Sunday in April) attracting many visitors from within and outside of the prefecture.
The route from the boardwalk to the observatory takes about 30 minutes while enjoying the abundant nature.
