Daikanbo Lookout
  • 40m
Visit Daikanbo, an observatory offering a 360-degree panoramic view of magnificent nature. The observation deck located at an altitude of about 900 m showcases superb views of the Aso townscape, the Five Peaks of Aso, and the Kuju Mountains, making it one of Kumamoto's best lookout points. It is also famous for the view of the Five Peaks of Aso resembling a sleeping Buddha. It takes about 10 minutes to walk uphill from the car park to the observation deck.
Nabegataki Falls
  • 40m
The tour will visit Nabegataki Falls, which is said to have been created by the massive eruption that created the Aso caldera about 90,000 years ago. The waterfall took many years to form into its current shape, and it's still changing shape little by little as a result of repeated erosion. The waterfall has a drop of 10 m and a width of 20 m, and the water flowing like a curtain gives it a truly mystical beauty that makes it a popular photo spot. From the car park to the falls, customers will walk about 20 minutes return along the pathway in Nabegataki Park.
Aso Milk Factory
  • 30m
The tour will make a stop at the Aso Milk Factory, which offers dairy products of Aso as well as vegetables and fruits grown by local producers. Aso is a region with a rich agricultural culture that has been recognised as one of the Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems. Among these, dairy farming is a flourishing system, and dairy products made using Aso milk have become a brand in their own right.
