Cape Toi is located in Kushima City, Miyazaki Prefecture, at the southernmost tip of the Hyuga Nada Sea. During the Edo period, the Akizuki family of Takanabe Domain established a ranch for the purpose of breeding military horses, and the horses of the samurai of that time, which were about 120 cm tall and weighed about 250 kg, became wild without being bred. They are called "Cape Horses" and are designated as natural monuments.
In autumn, you can observe the horses up close as they eat the golden grass and begin to prepare for winter.
