Oishi Park
大石公園
A free flower park on the north shore of Lake Kawaguchi, with lavender in early summer and red kochia in autumn, directly facing Mount Fuji across the lake.
Oishi Park stretches about 350 m along the north shore of Lake Kawaguchi. Seasonal flowers, the lake and Mount Fuji all appear in one frame, making it one of the classic photo spots on Lake Kawaguchi. Lavender in early summer and fiery red kochia (broom cypress) in autumn are the most popular, and the Lake Kawaguchi Herb Festival is held every June and July. Inside the park, the Natural Life Hall sells blueberry ice cream and jam. Admission is free. From Kawaguchiko Station, take the red line sightseeing bus for about 25 minutes. Visiting early in the morning or at dusk gives better lake reflections and light.
Opening hours
Open all day; Nature Living Hall about 09:00–17:30
