A Pleasant Lake Experience to Enjoy✨ Miyoshi is finally cooling down in the mornings and evenings, and the season to fully enjoy outdoor activities has arrived😊 This fall’s top recommendation is the “Ten-chan’s Haizuka Lake SUP Tour,” which we’d like to introduce😊 SUP stands for Stand Up Puddle. You stand on a board and paddle across the water, gliding smoothly in this popular activity. Even complete beginners, from children to seniors, can get up on the board quickly after a lesson. The greatest appeal is that you can enjoy it easily without worrying about fitness✨ The SUP instructor is Ten-chan, an experienced surfing and SUP instructor. Her careful teaching and radiant smile are highly praised, so even first-timers can feel at ease and enjoy themselves. Unlike the sea, you can relax on the calm lake surface. Surrounded by Haizuka Lake’s rich nature, you can savor a graceful stroll across the water🥰 Instruction proceeds at each participant’s pace, so few people fall into the water. Those who are determined to fall can keep trying challenging moves until they do! Since splashes may wet your hands and feet, please bring a change of clothes. You can change in a simple tent on site. Fresh water is prepared in a tank. If you fall in, you can rinse off inside the tent. “The leaves will soon be beautiful. Temperatures are comfortable, making this the best season for SUP! Anyone can feel free to get in touch😊,” says instructor Ten-chan. Why not try SUP in Miyoshi this fall?

Lake Utonai in mid-October. Swans, geese, and other migratory birds in autumn are gathering one after another. In particular, the "roosting" where the birds fly all at once to the surrounding feeding grounds at dawn is a must see. (Image courtesy of Lake Utonai at the Roadside Station)

What is the heartwarming fall experience “Choudo Gari”? 💛 The highlight of the autumn outing season, Hirata Sightseeing Farm’s “Choudo Gari,” is a fruit-picking style where you exchange a ticket for the fruit of your choice. ♪ The key point is that you can take your time and enjoy fruit picking with no time limit. 🍇✨ At reception you receive a three-item set: ・a paper bag ・a ticket ・a farm map ! The farm map shows which fruits are available to harvest that day and how many tickets each requires, so head to the area that interests you. Harvesting scissors ✂️ and the like are provided at the entrance to each area, so you can come empty-handed. Staff will let fruits ripen to the perfect eating point, and you can eat chilled fruit right on the spot. 🍑 *On this visit we enjoyed a super-chilled peach♪* With so many fruits to harvest, it’s hard to decide which to pick! You can harvest Pione grapes and Shine Muscat, both specialties of Miyoshi. ✨ noqoo Labo’s seasonal fruit parfaits, and the old-merchant-house cafe noqoo’s noqoo burger and fruit curry, which make abundant use of orchard fruit, are also very popular. 🍔✨ You can feed snacks to cows and goats, take a break in the cafe, and relax in nature.
