2026 Kannonyama Park Pool Full-Day Enjoyment Course

This is a full-day course centered around the summer-only outdoor pool at Kannonyama Park in Takasaki City, which operates from July 18 (Saturday) to August 31 (Monday), 2026. In the morning, experience the atmosphere of Shorinzan Daruma Temple nestled in the greenery of Kannonyama, the birthplace of auspicious daruma dolls, and then climb to the observation deck of the Takasaki Kannon statue perched atop the hill to take in a sweeping view of the city. After a lunch break at Kannonyama Park, head to Kannonyama Park Pool. The pool features a shallow splash pool, a babbling stream pool, a toddler pool, and a full-sized 25-meter pool for serious swimmers, perfect for water play from small children to elementary school kids. Admission is affordable at 100 yen for elementary school and up, and with changing rooms, showers, and nursing rooms fully equipped, families with young children can enjoy peace of mind. The pool operates from 9 AM to 4 PM, with a break from noon to 1 PM for turnaround, so plan your lunch during this time. Advanced reservations may be required on busy days, so check Takasaki City's official website for the latest information before heading out. Enjoy a day combining nature, historical exploration on Kannonyama, and water play—a summer favorite in Takasaki.
