Tarumae Garo, located in the western part of Tomakomai City.
Garo is a Tohoku regional word meaning “a place where a river flows between cliffs.”
True to its name, steep rock walls line both sides, and the area is carpeted in velvet-like moss.

Tomakomai is often enveloped in thick fog in early summer.
Poor visibility and trouble drying laundry can be inconvenient, but the softened glow of nighttime lights creates a dreamy, otherworldly scene.

A mountain-opening Shinto ceremony to pray for safety took place at the summit of Mt. Tarumae on June 12th.
A newly installed information board now includes an English description.
Mt. Tarumae stands at 1,041 meters and is considered relatively easy to climb.
Some hikers are seen wearing sandals, thin-soled sneakers, or short sleeves and shorts, but we recommend trekking shoes and a windbreaker.
(The trails are slippery due to pumice ejected during past eruptions, and strong winds always blow at the summit.)

By the shores of Lake Utonai.
A red songbird, the benimasiko, and a narcissus flycatcher with a striking black-and-yellow contrast.
They look like vividly colored wild birds straight out of a fairy tale.
