• Mt. Tsurumi - Ascend to the heavens with a journey on the Beppu Ropeway to the peak of Mt. Tsurumi, a 1,375-meter volcano offering expansive views of Beppu Bay, the Kuju Mountain range, and the Seto Inland Sea on clear days. Mt. Tsurumi is a year-round spectacle: cherry blossoms in spring, lush greenery in summer, vibrant foliage in autumn, and frost-laden trees in winter. Local legend says Mt. Tsurumi and nearby Mt. Yufu are a “married couple,” watching over Beppu and Yufuin. It’s an ideal location for stunning photos and serene moments above the clouds.
• Mt. Yufu Trailhead - Begin your adventure at the Mt. Yufu Trailhead, the primary entry to one of Kyushu’s most renowned peaks. Known as the “Fuji of Oita,” Mt. Yufu rises 1,584 meters and provides a moderate to challenging hike with awe-inspiring views at the top. The twin peaks of Mt. Yufu are particularly favored in spring and autumn, when wildflowers bloom or the landscape turns golden. This trailhead is essential for outdoor lovers and photographers in search of dramatic mountain vistas.
• Sagiridai Observatory - Sagiridai Observatory is a top scenic destination in Yufu, offering a sweeping view of the Yufuin Basin with the impressive Mt. Yufu in the background. Especially stunning at sunrise, the area is often enveloped in a mystical morning mist — “sagiri” in Japanese — which gives the observatory its name. It’s an ideal spot for photography, quiet contemplation, or simply enjoying Yufuin’s natural beauty. Easily reachable by car, it’s a must-see on your trip between Beppu and Yufuin.
