ヒイゴ池湿地

2024・6・8 14:15 I arrived at the parking lot while looking at the sign that said ◯◯m to the parking lot. Today's purpose was to take a photo of a dragonfly (a dragonfly the size of a 1 yen coin), so I looked for it really hard! ️ After searching for over 30 minutes, I found a female dragonfly in the back 💡 It rained on the way, but even after taking shelter from the rain, I was able to see a variety of insects. Although there is an expressway right next to it, the members of the protection group have worked hard to preserve this wetland ♡

2024/Late July situation Close to the parking lot, you will soon reach the wetland Well maintained and easy to walk There are no public restrooms, so it's best to go before you go. Unlike other wetlands, you don't have to worry about wild boars or bears, so you can feel free to take a walk. If I'm ever in the area, I'll change the time and come again.

2024.8.24 Herring flowers were blooming all over the wetland.

I wanted to see the ``Sagisou'' and since Obon is the best time to see them, I visited early in the morning. I didn't know there was a wetland like this right next to the highway. Although it is a small wetland, there is a boardwalk so that you can see the plants and creatures in the wetland. ``Sagisou'' was blooming naturally, and when you looked close you could see the shape of a heron, as the name suggests, and when you looked away, it looked like a heron was flying in the meadow in the distance. It seems like they used to grow wild everywhere. I was able to see it for the first time because it was protected here.

This wetland is located right next to the Sanyo Expressway in Sojakita Park⛲ (15 minutes walk). There is a parking lot (approx. 40 spaces) and toilets. There are no trash cans. You can enjoy the seasonal flora and fauna, and if you visit on weekdays, you'll have almost the entire place to yourself and can enjoy the scenery without hesitation. Please note that the promenade is somewhat damaged. There are many walking spots and walking points in the surrounding area (within an hour's walk), so please stop by for a break. Caution: If you are unlucky, some local youths from the biker gang (about 10 people) will be occupying the area near the parking lot, so be careful not to get in trouble!!
