Feed Snacks to Asian Black Bears and Be Healed by Their Adorable Antics

About this spot

A bear farm specializing exclusively in Asian Black Bears, located in a corner of the Hirayu Onsen area. The main attraction is the snack-feeding experience, where children are delighted by the bears' adorable behavior of raising both paws asking for treats. The grounds are compact, making it easy for families with small children to enjoy a full look around. The contrast between the impressive power and cute gestures of the bears seen up close is fun, and it's the perfect way to end a drive with an animal interaction spot.

Tips

Bear snacks can be purchased within the farm, so having small change is convenient. The grounds can be toured in about an hour, so it's enjoyable even from late afternoon. It's just a short drive from the Hirayu Onsen area with parking available. Before heading home, it's reassuring to browse for souvenirs or use restrooms in the Hirayu Bus Terminal area.
