Sashimaki Marsh Asian Skunk Cabbage Colony

Sashimaki Marsh is surrounded by a large alder forest. It is rare to see white flowers blooming all over a marshland, and the existence of such a colony and alder forest in the mountains close to a national highway and a railway line is also valuable from an academic perspective.

The Sashimaki Mizubasho Festival is held from mid-April to early May, and features sales of local cuisine and specialty products, as well as events.
