戸澤藩船番所で乗船券を購入し、坂を降りて、古口港から出発します。 ここから草薙港まで、12kmの定期航路は通年営業で、冬でも乗船できます。 基本的には船頭さんのお話を聞きながら、両岸の滝を眺め、のんびり川を下っていきますが、途中何箇所か流れが早い部分があり、スリルを楽しめます。 しかし、川の水量によって、そのスリル度は異なるようです。 今回は大雪の後で、水量が多く、スリルを楽しむ事が出来ました...

韓国風の建物が並ぶ道の駅でした。説明によると戸沢村が韓国のどこかの都市と友好関係があり、それを契機として道の駅のデザインを韓国風にしたようです。ただ、道の駅の設置時期を見ると、第一次韓流ブームの真っ最中で、ついつい流行にのってしまったようですね。

枝分かれした杉の木がいくつも立っていて、本当に幻想的です。 幹が裂けたものや、穴の開いたものなど、見ていて飽きません。 森自体はウッドチップで整備されていますが、国道から細い砂利の林道を3キロぼど進む必要がります。 基本すれ違いができないので車では行かない方が良いです。 出かける前に土湯沢林道で通行可能かチェックしましょう。 私が言ったのは、平日の昼頃でしたが、車３台、バイク１台と出会いました...

Yamagata Areas
Although often overlooked, Yamagata prefecture by no means lacks appeal: the Yamadera temple trail through the mountains, deliciously tender Yonezawa wagyu, and over 100 steaming hot springs, most notably Zao Onsen, await visitors. When winter comes, the snowcapped peaks become dotted with skiers by day and onsen-goers by night, while summer brings the celebration of juicy Yamagata cherries.
