Self-Guided Tour Around Kumamoto: Daikanbo Peak's Panoramic Splendor

Daikanbo Peak in Aso City, Kumamoto Prefecture, is an excellent spot for admiring the magnificent scenery of Mount Aso.

Located in the northern part of Aso, the endless grasslands and the distant Aso Five Peaks seem like a scene from a grand landscape painting.

From the observation deck, you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the Aso volcanic crater and the vast Aso Valley. The view is so expansive and beautiful that it's overwhelming.

It's also an ideal place to watch the sunrise and sunset. The sunlight casting over the valleys and grasslands creates a breathtaking scene that takes your breath away.

There are also some small shops and cafes around, where you can enjoy delicious food and relax.

Access to Daikanbo Peak is very convenient. From Kumamoto City, you can take the JR Hohi Main Line to Aso Station, which takes about 1.5 hours. From Aso Station, you can take a bus or taxi to Daikanbo Peak, which takes about 30 minutes. The transportation is somewhat complex, so it's recommended to drive yourself or join a day tour.
