Lake Mashu Observatory No.1 — Attraction in Teshikaga

I recently visited Lake Mashu and was lucky enough to see it without any fog. The view was absolutely stunning! And I even spotted a couple of ezo deers on the slope. For anyone planning to visit, be sure to bring sunglasses during sunny days to protect your eyes and dress warmly as it can be very windy. Plenty of car parking spaces are available.

Highly recommend visiting on sunny days, as I've heard that Lake Mashu is often covered in fog. Don’t forget to visit the souvenir shop for delicious...

Morning adventure on July 30th at Lake Mashu Observatory No.1! 🏞️🌄 Paid parking (500 Yen), but Observatory No.3 offers free parking! 🚗💨 Bathroom situation: Only one here! 🚽 Don’t miss the cafe in the observatory’s basement, offering tasty drinks & Japanese snacks! ☕🍡 Lake views = WOW, but wish for more sunlight! ☀️ Comfy sofas for lake gazing! 😌 Beware pesky insects, bring spray next time! 🐜🦟

Overall: Magnificent lake spot, with a few bug surprises! 🌊🪰 Plan ahead...

2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣0️⃣8️⃣0️⃣3️⃣ Pretty awesome view of the lake next to a volcano. Such a scenic view. I was told that the island in the middle literally is a column stretching down to the lake floor. It would be awesome if someone actually been down there and took a photo. Must be magical ... well at least in the way I am imagining it.
