Mt. Aso is an active volcano, and the area is a national park.
If the volcano is not erupting, we can take our bus to the crater.
There are also optional activities in the vicinity.
- Kusasenrigahama - “Grazing lands and volcanic activity”
This gorgeous must-see geosite includes a rain fed pool and a 785,000-square-meter grassland growing inside an inactive crater in the foothills of Mt. Eboshi. It’s a perfect place to stop for a stroll alongside the cows and horses that graze peacefully as Mt. Nakadake sends up smoke in the distance. Horse rides through the grasslands are another popular activity.
The Aso Volcano Museum sits just adjacent to Kusasenri-ga-hama. With a large collection of materials related to the volcano, the museum is an excellent place to deepen your understanding of the region’s history. Displays include large dioramas showing the process of Aso Volcano’s formation as well as exhibits on volcanos around the world. The museum is also the only place to view real-time footage of Nakadake Crater taken with a recently-installed camera system.
