Hi, I’m Tabi!

Explore Oyu’s Jomon archaeology and Hanawa’s festival culture in Kazuno. Outdoor site access can be restricted by season or safety conditions; check operating guidance and same-day local restrictions first.

This guide covers places within Kazuno, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

大湯環状列石

The photograph shows the site in September 2018. The city’s planned October 2026 outdoor hours are 9:00–16:30, subject to weather and safety changes. Do not step on or move stones; follow designated routes and local restrictions, including wildlife-related closures.

A first-visit stop

Hanawa Bayashi Festival Exhibition Hall

花輪ばやし祭り展示館

At Michi-no-Eki Kazuno, this hall displays floats used in the actual festival. An indoor visit differs from the street festival in August, and live demonstrations are not daily. Check admission, opening days and demonstration schedules separately.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Look for kiritanpo, Akita’s rice specialty. Michi-no-Eki Kazuno Antler also lists a kiritanpo facility. Check current grilled or hot-pot offerings and hands-on activities, without treating the dish as exclusive to Kazuno.

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off
