Shiroyama Observation Deck

4.0

This viewpoint is located 748 meters above sea level. Located at the start of the Yamanami Highway that leads to Beppu, it's a nice spot for a break while driving. It has a magnificent view of Aso Gogaku, the five peaks of Mt. Aso-with the farmland of the Aso Valley stretching below. On autumn early mornings when conditions are right, you might see the phenomenon known as unkai, a sea of clouds.

We were heading back to Fukuoka and this lookout is on the way and we made a quick stop. The view is very beautiful looking back down the flat valley at Aso station and surrounding mountains...
A super good Lo to view the whole Mt. Aso

After a long drive from Kurosawa Onsen before arriving to Mt. Aso, this stop-by sight-seeing point is excellent for taking a good breath and rest for viewing the whole Mt. Aso.
阿蘇の景色が一望できます。
