Michi-no-Eki Mokkuru Shinshiro

Flow of the course

About this spot

This roadside station beside the Shinshiro Interchange serves as the gateway to Okumikawa (奥三河). It combines a direct-sales corner lined with local farm produce and processed goods with a dining space, so every family member can choose what they want to eat. The signature gohei-mochi rice skewers (五平餅) whet the appetite with the fragrance of their savory glaze and are popular with children too. The building, which makes generous use of wood, is bright and open, with just the right atmosphere for a break before outdoor play. Sakurabuchi Park (桜淵公園) is only a few minutes away by car, so stocking up on drinks and snacks here for the afternoon water play brings peace of mind.

Tips

Seats fill up easily around noon on weekends and holidays, so arriving between 11 and noon lets you eat calmly. If you buy fresh food, a cooler bag lets you leave it in the car with confidence during the afternoon water play. Please check the business hours and closing days on the official website in advance.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour 20 minutes. To avoid crowds, the latter half of the 11 o'clock hour is comfortable
