Mt. Iwate Yakehashiri Lava Flow

Reviewed By quindra - Morioka, Japan

This area right at the foot of Mt. Iwate marks where a volcanic eruption covered the area in magma 300 years ago. If you're not used to volcanoes, it's pretty impressive. There is a walkway that goes through the center of the volcanic rocks and takes you to some nice observation decks. There's also a trailhead to hike up to the summit of Mt. Iwate here, as well as public bathrooms and a car camp area.

Hachiman Swamp

Reviewed By quindra - Morioka, Japan

The Hachimantai Nature Observation Trail runs a circuit of this pristine pond. In the spring it's completely covered in snow and invisible- you can walk right over it! But in the summer and fall it is quite beautiful.

I stayed for seven days of skiing, the room and services was truly excellent. With plenty of amenities and stuff to do beside skiing. The hotels foods and gifts shops is the best that I have ever seen for a Japanese ski resort. Their outdoor onsen which is a short bus ride away is a must. Their central food court is highly recommended if you are on a budget. Unfortunately this was truly a bad year for snow sports here. The conditions was icy on the lower half of the mountain., due to the warm winter. Hopefully global warming will skip next year. I would definitely come back again. Please be aware slow chairlift due to a lot of beginners and first time skiers and snowboarders.
