Shinei no Oka Observation Park
新栄の丘展望公園
A free viewing park on the Super Wide-Angle Road, famed as the best place to watch Biei's sunsets. Nearby sunflower fields and round hay bales make classic scenes.
Shinei no Oka Observation Park sits on high ground along the middle section of the Super Wide-Angle Road. It offers a 360-degree view of the Biei hills, with Mount Tokachi and the Daisetsuzan Mountains in the distance, and it is considered the best place in Biei to watch the sunset. In summer, sunflowers and flower beds fill the park. After the autumn harvest, round bales of hay scattered across the fields make a distinctive scene. Admission and parking are both free, and small nearby stalls sell corn and ice cream. The park is about 7 km from Biei Station, a 15-minute drive, and about 10 minutes from Shikisai no Oka.
