Every year during spring, golden week and autumn, I come to enjoy Chichibu’s natural beauty. I visited this park on May 4th 2024. Although the moss phlox season has passed, it is still nice to sit outdoor with fresh air and natural scenery. There’s a farm market, they call it ‘marche’ and there is a sheep farm. Still in the same area, a bit further there is an athletic park for children. It’s recommended for a family with children.
The park's Shibazakura Hill is in full bloom from mid-April to early May during the annual Shibazakura Festival. It is considered the best time to visit and witness the vibrant display of colors.
You can take a train or bus from Tokyo to Chichibu Station, then take a local bus or taxi to the park's entrance. Alternatively, you can drive and use the available parking lots at the park.
No, the park is free to enter all year round. However, during the Shibazakura Festival, an admission fee of 300 yen is charged.
Yes, pets are allowed in the park if they are kept on a leash and their waste is correctly disposed of.
Bring your food and beverages to enjoy in the park's designated picnic areas. Various food stalls are also available during the Festival. However, please refrain from eating while walking to maintain the cleanliness of the park.
