Unfortunately, there are no sightseeing buses operating year-round in the Lake Tazawa area. However, there are sightseeing buses that operate during the spring when the flowers are in bloom, and during the period from the fresh green leaves to the autumn foliage.
Unfortunately, there are no public transportation options in the Kakunodate area. The on-demand transportation service “Yobunoru Kakunodate” is recommended. You can get there on foot or by taxi, and although the number of buses is limited, you can also use the local bus service. The samurai residences are about a 15-minute walk away, or about a 5-minute drive away.
