Activities

This place is a surprising treasure trove of Yambaru’s living creatures!
From morning till night enjoy Yambaru’s nature to the fullest!

Explore Yambaru’s colorful nature on paths surrounded by broccoli-shaped Itajii evergreens, and beautiful laurel trees, while enjoying birdsong and flowers and trees of every season. If you are lucky you might see the rare Okinawan woodpecker and Rail birds. The stars of the Southern Cross can be seen clearly from Okinawa. Yambaru is one of the best spots for this as you can take in the night sky while experiencing the smells, animal sounds and cool breeze in the forest.
