Definitely worth a visit. About 45 min walk from the near by village. But you can also drive there by car as there is plenty of parking. Clean toilets. Great view and a nice park. Beautiful nature around.

2023.04.06 This is a lake with 6 parking spaces around. You can travel around by little car in less busy hours. Beautiful scene. Should be better later of the day when the sky is brighter.

Built in 1999, Shimagawa Dam is a great place to spend the day. 3-4 hours can easily be spent here. There’s picnic tables in 4-5 stopping locations around the dams loop. There’s a kids park. There’s many scenic areas for great pictures. The water is blue and the air is fresh. Parking is all over the loop, so there’s no need to panic and park your car in the first spot you see. Have fun!

It wasn’t as “blue” as I expected to be, but it was a nice quick stop. The parking is limited and one way street to go around the lake. There is a nice cafe by the parking spot. Nice 10-15min walk. Might be better view if the weather was nicer.

Photos taken just after Christmas. Scenery is stunning as you can see. Btw, this place has wifi, can you believe it?!
