2026 Mutsumi Amenity Park (むつみアメニティパーク) Wading Pool / Water Channel: A Full Day Course

This is a free one-day course starring the Mutsumi Amenity Park (むつみアメニティパーク) Wading Pool / Water Channel in Otofuke Town. In a typical year the water runs from Friday, May 1 to Wednesday, September 30, with the central fountain operating 8:00-20:00 and the pond fountain 9:00-17:00 (Otofuke Town's own notice says "early May to late September"). There are several water spots — the central fountain, the water channel, the wading pool, and the pond fountain — plus the spring-water plaza channel, a lawn plaza, and a landscaped mound, so the greatest appeal is being able to choose how to play according to each child's preference. In the morning, visit Ryugetsu Sweetpia Garden (柳月スイートピア・ガーデン). At this shop attached to the factory of a leading Tokachi confectioner, you can watch the baumkuchen-baking process through the glass. At midday, move to Michi-no-Eki Otofuke Natsuzora no Furusato (道の駅おとふけ なつぞらのふる里) and enjoy dishes made with Tokachi ingredients along with local farm produce. In the afternoon, it is finally time for the Mutsumi Amenity Park (むつみアメニティパーク) Wading Pool / Water Channel, where you can play in the water until evening. Under the wide skies of the Tokachi Plain, this course lets you trace the appeal of Otofuke Town — sweets, food, and water play — all in one day. Since opening conditions can change with the weather or maintenance work, it is reassuring to check the Otofuke Town information before you set out.
