At the Tokapuchi Grand Space Scenic Cafe’s Tokachigaoka Observatory, local volunteer guides offer landscape and sightseeing information on summer Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. Today’s weather turned out better than forecast, and I cycled there to see the blue sky! Although clouds were plentiful, I could see the Hidaka Range and the Tokachi Plain in one sweeping view 🤩 You can sometimes see hot air balloons in the early morning, and it’s also a beautiful spot for sunset ✨ From Tokachigawa Onsen town About a 5-minute drive or a 15-minute bike ride. [Volunteer Guides] Period: Saturday, July 1 – Saturday, September 30 Hours: Weekends and public holidays only, 10:00–15:00 *Canceled in rain or on very hot days (30°C or above) *No beverages provided
