Hosooka Observatory

Sigh-inducingly beautiful scenery

Kushiro Marsh offers a panoramic view of the magnificent scale of the endless expanse of Kushiro Marsh! Also known as "Daikanbou," this is the most popular of the several observatories overlooking Kushiro Marsh. If the weather is favorable, you can see Mt. Akan. There is a walking trail leading from the parking lot to the viewing plaza, up the hill in front of the Hosooka Visitor's Lounge. Further along the trail is Daikanbou, where you can enjoy the spectacular view.
