Why don't you come to the forest?

When you come to the forest to play, please follow the manners and enjoy a walk.
・Collect native plants and creatures and do not bring them home. Also, do not bring plants or creatures from other places.
・When walking with your pet, please keep it connected.
・Do not go out of the road and enter places where entry is prohibited.

In order to preserve the forest, it is important to increase the number of people involved in the forest. It is necessary to be interested in the forest and understand the importance of the forest by providing opportunities for the forest.
At the Welcome Centers located at five locations in the city, we provide information on forest creatures, experience nature, and provide opportunities for environmental learning to create opportunities related to forests.
