- DanSingapore, Singapore77 contributionsIf you cant catch bus, taxi will cost ard 1700yen from Matsumoto station.
Just take note that the only bus leave this park at 10:25am and 2:25pm. Or else you need to walk down. It is abt 4km to Matsumoto station.
Park is big, lots of play area for children, very limited foods though.
Luge is only operating on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Do check their operating hours.
Luge ride is cheap, children pay 1000yen for 6rides, adult is 2000yen.
Fun ride for children and adults too.
There is a small natural museum showing wildlife of that area.Written December 10, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Best to have a car if you want to do things on the west side of the airport (frisbee golf/ crazy bikes, etc).
Built on excess land bought by Matsumoto city and Shiojiri city when constructing the airport in the 1980's this public park is a huge play area with all sorts of activites, many family orientated. Note that it was built with the local population in mind and every family in the area drives.Written January 20, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Since my first trip in 2013, I've come back several times to wander around, watch the world go by, look at the fish in the moat and the snow covered mountai s in the distance. I really just enjoy being here. It is lovely during the autumn.Written January 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DLi_hkHong Kong, China16,220 contributionsIchinose is about 5-10 min drive or about 20-30 min walk from the Norikura bus terminal. There is a shuttle bus service but only operates on weekends during peak seasons. It is a swamp area with small ponds dotting here and there. Though not at the peak of fall, still managed to catch early glimpses of its scenery for my future travel to Norikura kogen again.Written November 22, 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alex JHakuba-mura, Japan406 contributionsA charming building that now serves as an adult extra curricular classes originally built in the 1920’s. Interesting architectural derails with many of the furniture and classes intact.Written May 15, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Zfy EdSingapore, Singapore8,646 contributionsThis park is located within a short walk (1-min) from Zenko-ji Temple and next to Nagano Prefectural Museum of the Arts. (you can checkout my earlier reviews of these places too)
On our visits to the two attractions as mentioned earlier, we passed by this huge park. Although it was around noon time with the sun shinning brightly, it was cold (that's why you can see that my jacket was worn). It was recently renovated in 2021
The park is clean and neat and most of the leaves of trees have fallen off and withered as winter was coming. There's a playground for children to enjoy their activities, adults for their leisure run on the pristine paths, and visitors would visit this place during spring to watch the sakura and cherry blossoms too, not to mention for sunrise or sunset. The view is nice, with huge mountains around!
We didn't have the luxury of time to explore the park fully, but we liked the serenity and peacefulness here, totally a different scene from the "busy and crowdedness" of the adjacent temple!
Think we would surely fall in love of this place should we see the sakuras!Written January 5, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Heading into Winter they managed to find colourful flowers to make the dial stand out.Written November 7, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
