“A recommendation for a stroll through a farm.
Since its reopening in April 2023, Ark Tategamori has become a facility designed for visitors to explore on foot. Vehicles are no longer allowed inside the ranch, and parking is now concentrated in the area where the farm entrance is located. This change was made from an environmental conservation perspective, as well as to ensure the safety of the increasing number of people who walk around the grounds in recent years.
Walking around allows you to notice plants and flowers you hadn't noticed before, and to appreciate the changing seasons.
Enjoy a leisurely stroll while taking in the scents of herbs and flowers and interacting with the animals.
For getting around to major attractions, please also take advantage of our daily "sightseeing bus" and "rental bicycle" services.
