It is a plum grove on the western slope of Mt. Orihime.
Ashikaga, which flourished in the textile industry, once had many female workers, and even had a girls' part-time high school.
For this kind of girl`s education, the president of Kokoku Kagaku (currently Achilles) began to plant plum trees around 1964, considering the sale of plum fruits as a source of funding for scholarship.
1,200 white and red plums (7: 3) are in full bloom on the site of 3 ha. The view of plum grove seen from the Ryogai Mountain hiking course is like a landscape painting that describing the trailing clouds along the mountains.
Located on the western slope of Mt. Orihime, you can go there from Ashikaga Prefectural Nature Park hiking trail.
Why don't you stop by during the hike?
The best time to see them is from late February to middle of March. (It is up to the weather condition)
Please take the garbage home with you so that everyone can enjoy watching flowers.
