Yokoyama Observatory Deck

The observation deck here is exceptional, and it's a must-visit when sightseeing in the area. From the deck, you can see the bay and scattered islands, with the scenery appearing even more magnificent under the sunlight. There's also a café at the deck, where you can enjoy the view while having soft-serve ice cream, making for a very comfortable experience. There are two ways to get up the mountain: first, you can park at the lot at the foot of the mountain and take a 15-minute trail, which is well-paved with steps; the second option is to drive up the mountain, but due to limited parking spaces, they control traffic with a one-in-one-out system. We waited about 10 minutes.

Stunning view. Visitor center a stone's throw away is a good starting point to decide how much you wish to explore. They have Oculus headsets for a virtual tour of the national park too, so that you can pick your routes. The deck here provides a breathtaking view of Ago bay. Not many visitors when here at the start of December. There is a cafe here too if walking isn't your thing. No pets though.

Nice view. Free parking

Nice view but maybe quite breezy so do wear wind breaker. Cafe is semi open air.

Great viewing point... Limited parking above...Can just park at the open carpark n walk 10mins up.. Great walk to have fresh air around trees..
