Hi, I’m Tabi!

Begin with mountain scenery and a riverside park in Ochi, Kochi. Plan a distant view of Mount Yokokura separately from a mountain hike, and visit Miyanomae Park as another stop. The photograph shows the mountain from the east in April 2013.

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

Mount Yokokura scenery

横倉山の景観

This local mountain is associated with botanist Tomitaro Makino and contains shrines and woodland. The April 2013 photograph is a distant eastern view, not a summit or trail image. For a hike, check weather, equipment and access separately; keep out of fields and private land.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

A first-visit stop

Miyanomae Park

宮の前公園

A park beside the Niyodo River is known for cosmos flowers and community events. Check this year’s notices for blooms and event dates. This card’s illustration does not show current flowers; also check river levels and restrictions locally.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The town’s food guide introduces local farm vegetables, fruit and locally made sushi rolls at the Ochi-eki tourism products hall. “Eki” here is part of the hall’s name. Check seasonal stock and same-day availability, and eat purchases in permitted areas.
