Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit highland flowers and a spring-fed park in Kobayashi, Miyazaki. The opening photograph shows Ikoma Plateau in autumn 2021. Even during the 2026 festival period, check actual blooms and admission conditions for your day.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Ikoma Plateau

生駒高原

Hana no Eki Ikoma Plateau is a paid venue for seasonal flowers. Consult the official 2026 cosmos-festival guidance without expecting the photograph’s exact blooms. Check weather, event changes and current admission, and stay out of planted beds.

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

A first-visit stop

Idenoyama Park

出の山公園

This park surrounds a spring-fed pond. The 2019 photograph shows a small shrine by the water. Use designated paths, stay out of the water and avoid disturbing wildlife. Check aquarium, activity and dining arrangements separately.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Local tourism guidance introduces freshwater-fish dishes such as carp and sturgeon at Idenoyama. This does not permit catching or eating fish from the pond. Check restaurant opening, bookings, raw or cooked preparation, fish and seasoning ingredients.

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.
