Activity itinerary

Yukemuri Observatory
  • 15m
This is our first stop! Here we will be able to see the steam rising from the hells of Beppu hot springs into the sky. It is the perfect spot to see the town of Beppu and surrounding mountains. This view is incredibly unique to Beppu and shouldn't be missed!
Beppu Ropeway
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
We will ascend 1300 meters above sea level on the largest Ropeway in Kyushu. Beppu Ropeway takes us to the top of Mt. Tsurumi, an active volcano and the source of Beppu Hot Springs, where you can see panoramic views of Beppu and Beppu Bay.
Mt. Yufu (Pass by)
Mount Yufu is a 5,195 ft volcano located on the border of Yufu and Beppu. We will see it on the way to Yufuin.
Sagiridai Observatory
  • 10m
This observatory is located between Yufuin and Beppu along the Yamanami Highway (Prefectural Route 11), known as one of the most scenic driving destinations in Kyushu. This stop offers a beautiful view of the Yufuin Basin from 680 meters above sea level.
Yufuin Area
  • 2h
A rural Japanese town that would make you feel like stepping into a beloved Ghibli film. Get a glimpse of the Japanese countryside hills and stroll around creeks and charming cafes.
Lake Kinrin
  • 20m
We will walk to Lake Kinrin. The lake sits under Mt. Yufu and it was called takemoto-no-ike or “lake under the mountain” for several years by the locals. However, it was renamed to Kinrin, or “golden scales”, by Mori Kuso, a Confucius scholar, in 1884 when he saw the golden-scaled fish in the waters around sunset one day.
