About this spot

A general park in the Shikishima district of Kai City (甲斐市), where family-friendly play equipment and open spaces are laid out alongside sports facilities such as an athletics stadium and a baseball field. Getting the body moving first thing in the morning makes the indoor time that follows much calmer. The grounds are undulating, so children look satisfied just running up and down the slopes. There are plenty of trees, so you can pick a shady spot to rest. It is about 10 minutes by car to Futaba Waterside Park, making it a perfect stop to open the day.

Tips

Admission is free and there is a parking lot. The parking lot gets crowded on days with tournaments or events, so leave with time to spare. Preparing drinks in advance gives peace of mind.
