The Kawayu Eco Museum Center: Everything Nature Lovers Need to Explore the Kawayu Area

Kawayu Eco Museum Center is a hub of information about the natural world and plentiful outdoor activities in the Kawayu Onsen, Lake Mashu, Lake Kussharo, and Mount Io areas. Warm-up by the log fire with a delicious coffee from the National Park Style Cafe as you find out how to best explore this scenic region, created by the unique intersection of forests, lakes, and volcanoes. If you’re up for it, rent snowshoes or long boots for a wintery walk through the vast Sakhalin spruce forests that surround the Center. Trekking enthusiasts should also be sure to check out the many nature and hiking trails in this region profiled by the Eco Museum Center.
