A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
山江村
Visit a park and a former village hall north of the Kuma Basin. The cover photograph records the village’s administrative office in 2015. Check current access and transport for each destination.
This guide covers places within Yamae, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
A first-visit stop
丸岡公園
A village park offers flowers and viewpoints. Cherry blossom and azalea descriptions refer to spring, not promised autumn blooms. Assess slopes and steps before choosing your walk, and check application requirements for the campground or clubhouse.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE
The village is known for growing chestnuts. Check origin and ingredient labels on Yamae chestnuts and products, and ask about harvest timing and current stock. Do not assume fixed festival dates or year-round shop menus.
