Hi, I’m Tabi!

This guide covers Tottori City. Choose the dunes, castle area or Hakuto for a first outing, planning separate transport between these areas.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Three places to begin

Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.

A first-visit stop

Tottori Sand Dunes

鳥取砂丘

Look over sand hills toward the sea. The photo dates from May 2008. Wind and rain affect scenery and walking conditions; follow local guidance.

Getting there
Check buses toward the dunes and your return service from Tottori station

02

A first-visit stop

Hakuto Shrine

白兎神社

A shrine associated with the myth of the white rabbit of Inaba. Treat the tradition as a faith story and respect worship spaces.

Getting there
Check buses toward Hakuto Jinja-mae from Tottori station

03

A first-visit stop

Tottori Castle Ruins and Kyusho Park

鳥取城跡・久松公園

Discover the city’s history through castle stonework and parkland. Nearby Jinpukaku is closed for conservation work. Check separate current guidance for indoor visits and hillside paths.

Getting there
Check transport from Tottori station toward the castle site in Higashimachi

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The city guide features pears as a local specialty. Check variety, origin and availability when choosing seasonal fruit; not every pear sold is grown in Tottori.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Begin at the dunes entrance and explore according to local guidance, wind and walking conditions. Check your return bus and plan separate trips to Hakuto Shrine and the castle site.

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 current entry rules, opening information and return transport.
  • Choose an outing suited to steps, slopes and weather.
  • Respect worship spaces and photography rules; check food ingredients at the shop.
