About this spot

This is a roadside station in Fujikawa Town with a pleasant view surrounded by mountains. The direct-sales stand is lined with local vegetables, fruit, and processed goods, and the selection is at its best in the morning. There's a food corner, so you can have a light bite before heading to the next spot. Buying your pool snacks and drinks here all at once makes the rest of your movements lighter. The outdoor rest area opens onto sweeping views, and simply stepping out of the car here changes your mood.

Tips

Check the facility's own information in advance for business hours and regular closing days. The direct-sales stand has the fullest selection in the morning. The parking lot gets crowded during the Obon period, so an early stop is recommended. If you buy cold items, an insulated bag will keep them safe in the car.
