Toki Forest Park (トキの森公園)

Flow of the course

About this spot

A facility dedicated to the protection and breeding of the crested ibis, a nationally designated natural treasure and symbol of Sado Island. At the Toki Information Center, you can learn about the ecology and protection history of crested ibis, and from the outdoor observation walkway, you can observe the birds up close. Learning about how the crested ibis, once on the brink of extinction, has achieved wild revival through the efforts of Sado's people, deepens your understanding of this island's nature.

Tips

An entrance fee is required, and the observation walkway is outdoors, so sun protection is important in summer. The number of birds you can see varies depending on their activity, so observing at different times is also recommended. The indoor exhibition area is cool and good for resting.

Best time to visit

Takes approximately 1 hour. You can observe leisurely during the calm afternoon hours.
