Lake Mashu Third Observatory
Located about 4 km north of the First Observatory, the "Lake Mashu Third Observatory" is the first spot you reach when heading towards Mashu Lake from Kawayu hot spring.
This observatory offers a close view of Kamui Island and is the highest among the three observatories around Lake Mashu. Due to its elevation and fewer visitors, you can quietly enjoy the lake's scenery.
With the lake behind you, you can also enjoy views of Mt. Io, Lake Kussharo, Mt. Mokoto, and the robust appearance of alpine trees such as the Japanese white birch.
