Morioka City/Vivid “early summer green” contrasts with “autumn red”

Harmony between the rustling of the treetops and the voices of birds

The next fresh green spot we will introduce is "Tonan Tsudoi no Mori." This forest park is located about 20 minutes by car from JR Morioka Station, and you can enjoy camping and barbecues inside. The campsite is divided into ''Campsite 1'', which has permanent tents, and ''Campsite 2'', which has auto sites, bungalows, and cabins, and you can purchase and rent ingredients and tools at the nearby barbecue house. Why not enjoy the outdoors without bringing anything while listening to the rustling of the treetops?

The area is also widely known as the best treasure trove of wild birds near the city, and you can spot birds that are rarely seen these days, such as red-headed woodpeckers and goshawks. A gentle breeze blows through the sunlight filtering through the trees, and the sounds of birds echo around. There is also a walking path, so please enjoy bird watching in the fresh greenery.

"Fresh green" is the momentary brilliance that appears as the greenery deepens toward summer. Come and catch that sparkle.
