Hi, I’m Tabi!
Meet lake and volcanic landscapes at Lake Mashu’s First Observatory and the foot of Mount Io. This is distinct from the Ura-Mashu viewpoint on the Kiyosato side; the guide does not take you to a summit or lakeshore.
This guide covers places within Teshikaga, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

A first-visit stop
Lake Mashu First Observatory
摩周湖第一展望台
View Lake Mashu from above. The landscape photo dates to 2011 and does not depict the current terrace facilities. Fog may hide the lake; check current parking and access information.
Getting there Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
The photo shows a fumarole at Atosa-Nupuri, Mount Io, in 2019. It is not an invitation to approach as closely as the camera. Use only currently permitted viewing areas and do not approach or touch vents or yellow deposits.
Getting there Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
Look for Mashu soba made with locally grown buckwheat. Official information introduces flour, dried noodles and fresh noodles. Check ingredients, buckwheat and wheat allergens, retailers and menus.
