Okayama Forest Park German Forest

Flow of the course

About this spot

This agricultural park spreading across the hills of Akaiwa City is modeled on a German farming village. In the wide grounds you can meet sheep, goats, rabbits, and other animals, and through feeding them children learn the warmth and strength of living creatures with their own bodies. There are places to eat inside the park, so you can settle down for lunch and build up energy for the afternoon in the water. Seasonal harvest experiences, craft workshops, and other events are sometimes held, and checking the day's notices to shape your plan is part of the pleasure. The splash pool is inside the same park, so you can move on to the afternoon water play without traveling anywhere.

Tips

Admission can vary by age and season, so check the official website in advance along with opening hours and closed days. Always wash your hands after touching the animals. The grounds are wide and have slopes, so easy-to-walk shoes and frequent breaks will keep everyone from tiring out. It is some distance to carry your water-play gear from the car into the park, so bringing only the essentials together makes moving around easier.

Best time to visit

About 2 hours. Animal feeding times may be fixed, so checking on arrival is efficient.
