Kikuchi Valley

 

Enjoy short trekking in the Nature

Kikuchi Valley is located in Aso Kuju National Park. Underground water flows out of the subsoil for

4km along the valley floor.

It is also called the Kikuchi water source and its water was selected as one of the 100 best waters in Japan.

There are two routes to follow: a 30 minute and a 60 minute loop along the river bank and back down the

other side.

Kikuchi Valley is an ideal place for a summer resort. Also it has a walking trail, forest park and wild bird park, etc.

Since over 50 kinds of wild birds are living in the valley, many people visit for bird watching.
