A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
産山村
Visit two wooded springs in this Aso highland village. Check the rules that protect the water and plan parking and return transport for each site separately.
This guide covers places within Ubuyama, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
池山水源
Large trees surround this spring, selected among Japan’s notable waters. It supplies drinking water, so do not put hands, feet or camera equipment into it. The photograph dates from 2014. Use designated parking and paths and watch for slippery footing.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
A first-visit stop
山吹水源
Reach this quiet spring on a woodland path from the car park. Keep hands, feet and camera equipment out of the water here too. Official guidance says the car-park toilets close from December through late March to prevent freezing; check before a winter visit.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
02 · A LITTLE BITE
The village introduces spring-water tofu, local rice and Akaushi beef. Check origin labels, ingredients and current availability. A hometown-tax gift listing does not establish a restaurant’s menu or booking availability.
