Deep Spots in Taiki Town
📍Site of the Former JNR Hiroo Line Taiki Station
In Taiki Town, you can still find the remains of the station building from the Hiroo Line, the railway that linked Obihiro and Hiroo and ran until 1987.
Taiki Station opened in 1930, and at its peak it reportedly handled more than 1,000 passengers a day.
The former track area is now a plaza called Taiki Traffic Park, but the station building still stands.
You cannot enter the building, but looking through the windows you can see the ticket gate and waiting room still preserved inside.
The platform area still shows the station sign and a signal lever.
In Hakubayashi Park, north of Taiki Town Hall, a steam locomotive, No. 59611, which served around Hokkaido and ran on the Hiroo Line until 1975, is on display.
It was installed thanks to efforts by local steam locomotive enthusiasts.
Why not come and feel the traces of the railway that once ran through Taiki Town?

Want to try gold panning in Taiki Town?
Gold panning, recently talked about because of the hit movie Golden Kamuy, can still be experienced the old-fashioned way on the Rekifune River in Taiki Town!
The peak period for gold recovery on the Rekifune River is said to have been from the 1890s into the Taisho era, roughly the same time when the bullion battles in Golden Kamuy take place.
Taiki Town also provided some cooperation for the movie’s gold panning scenes.
See if you can spot Taiki Town in the end credits!
This year’s gold panning season is scheduled to start around Golden Week.
Come and give it a try!

Recent view of Rekifune River
It is mid to late January, and the cold has deepened in Taiki Town.
The Rekifune River running through Taiki Town has frozen over considerably 🧊
I compared photos of the Rekifune River seen from Furusato Bridge from last autumn and from this month.
Temperatures will drop further, and the frozen sections are expected to grow!
Will it freeze over completely…?

🌊Have you heard of a “torchka”?🌊
“Torchka” comes from the Russian word for “point” or “position.” It refers to small reinforced defensive emplacements made of concrete and other materials to protect militarily important sites.
The torchkas along Taiki Town’s Pacific coast were built in large numbers near the end of the Pacific War to prepare for a possible US landing on the home islands, but they were never used and the war ended.
Many remain today because they were built solidly with concrete. Despite erosion from waves, rain, and wind, they survive as historically valuable war relics.
You can find them along the shore, partially buried in sand, and inland in various locations.
The torchka known as “Asahihama Torchka,” set within a windbreak forest, has been developed for visitors and is open for viewing, so please consider visiting.
⚠️The areas around torchkas often include sandy beaches and rough terrain, so please take care when driving there.

🍁Taiki Town's Recommended Autumn Spots🍁
When it comes to places to feel autumn in Taiki Town, the stunning autumn leaves at Sakashita Senkyo stand out.
It's tucked away a bit, so here are directions on how to get there!
1. On the Shimizu–Taiki Line (Hokkaido Route 55), you'll see a sign on the right if you come from Kamifutsunai, and on the left if you come from Taiki. Follow the arrow and turn. (Photo 2)
2. You will see the orange bridge “Bikei Bridge” ahead; continue across it. (Photo 3)
3. The paved road changes to gravel along the way. Keep going and you will pass the orange bridge “Sakashita Ohashi.” (Photo 4)
4. After passing another gray bridge you will spot a dairy farm. Go past the farm a short distance until the road splits left and right, then follow the left sign. The sign reads “Rekifune River Tributary Forest Road,” and this is where the forest road begins. (Photos 5–6)
5. Continue along the forest road for a while. Some sections get muddy after rain and fallen branches may block the way, so proceed slowly. (Photo 7)
6. You will arrive at Higata Bridge, which spans Sakashita Senkyo. (Photo 8)
There is a small space on the right after crossing the bridge where you can park or make a U-turn.
For more detailed directions, see the Visit Taiki topic article “How to Get to Sakashita Senkyo.” Use it as a reference and go enjoy the autumn scenery!
