Ura-Mashu Observatory
Gazing at the mysterious Lake Mashu's other side, 'Ura-Mashu'.
The observatory, located on the border between Kiyosato Town and Nakashibetsu Town, is called the 'Ura-Mashu Observatory' because it is on the opposite side of the first and third observatories in Teshikaga Town. Due to its lower altitude compared to the observatories on the Teshikaga Town side, fog is less likely to occur, allowing for a clear view of the mystical Lake Mashu. The route to this observatory is different from the routes to the first and third observatories, making it a relatively quiet and serene hidden spot with fewer tourists. You can see a different aspect of Lake Mashu, including the clear blue lake surface and the rich nature of Mashu-dake, compared to other observatories.
