Hello, I’m Luna🌙, today Ando san took me and my partner Ringo🍎to Daikanbo, Aso.
Starting from Aso Station, it takes about 25 minutes by car to reach Daikanbo. There’s also a bus from the station to Daikanbo, making it convenient even if you don’t drive. However, the mountain roads are winding, so if you are prone to motion sickness, remember to take motion sickness pills.
When you climb to the top of Daikanbo on a clear day, you can see the Aso Five Peaks distinctly. Everywhere you look is a lush green landscape, presenting the most pristine natural scenery. Standing at the summit and looking down, everything that once seemed grand becomes tiny—small houses, tiny trains—and all that is visible are the trees and grass of nature, making one forget the distractions of the mundane world.
At the summit, there’s also a paragliding experience area, welcoming all thrill-seekers to come and give it a try. It looks incredibly high from below—I truly admire those brave enough to do this. Just watching it makes me feel scared ><
After experiencing paragliding, you can also enjoy delicious milk soft serve ice cream🍦.
The milk flavor is very rich, and depending on the season, they offer different flavors. When we went, they had honeydew melon🍈flavor.
Daikanbo is not far away from Aso Station, making it a perfect destination for those who have just arrived in Aso without specific plans. You can spend a leisurely half-day at the lush green summit of Daikanbo, enjoying a relaxed and peaceful time.
Luna🌙& Ringo🍎
