永野の風穴

Very interesting spot around the Takeo/Taku area that’s perfect for a little day trip diversion. On a hot day especially it’s fun walking in and cooling down. When we came the trails were being improved for an easier trip up. From the parking lot it’s about 450 meters to the mystery spot. Signs lead the way and it’s pretty straightforward. In the last stretch of the walk the trees and rocks felt like something out of a Ghibli movie. We were amused when we saw someone was using the mystery spot to chill a watermelon.

Hot summer day~No one was there ^^ It takes about 20 minutes from the parking lot to the wind cave. While casually climbing in sandals, There were some adventurous parts along the way, and I regretted that I should have worn sneakers. When I arrived at the entrance of the wind cave, I saw that it was a freezer! It was so cool and pleasant that I thought... I couldn't go inside because I was scared because I could hear a lot of bats chirping (^^;; There was a flashlight at the entrance, so I tried shining it inside, but I couldn't see anything... I cooled down at the entrance and went home ^ ^

The walk from the parking lot is paved for about 10 minutes, but after that it's about a 5 minute walk up the mountain slope. The footing is poor, so it's best to give up after it rains to avoid slipping on the way down. Even though it is hot up to the entrance of the hole, it is cool inside the hole. It's pitch black inside, but there's a flashlight at the entrance. Thank you for your consideration. It is hoped that the promenade will be improved, but there are donation boxes in the parking lot and at the start of the mountain, so please help.

It's very cool and a great place to go in the summer. However, you must be careful as you will be walking up a mountain path.

I visited during the August holidays, and the feeling of being in front of the wind cave was like a different world! I tasted the natural cooler＼(^o^)／
