Hi, I’m Tabi!

Uto is a Kumamoto city with contrasting waterscapes at Okoshiki Beach and Todoroki Springs. Distinguish it from neighboring Uki. Choose one destination and check current transport rather than assuming the two form a single walk.

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

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

Check the walking route

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

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
