Pretty long walk from Hakuryu Shrine, along the road, good if you drive. Quiet place, isolated sanctuary. Here you get a closer look at the Tori gate over water in lake ashi
Walk through the tree and moss covered path to the shrine while listening to bush warblers singing along the way. When we went there, the entire.Hakobe was draped in dense fog, adding to the already mystical and ethereal atmosphere of the shrine. Because of the rain and fog, it was not crowded- just us and respectful group of French-speaking visitors
Small Shrine but cozy. It has nice trails to walk around and enjoy the lake view. The price of an Adult ticket is 600 yen.
It's kind of a long walk from Togendai for a small park with shrine and the admission costs money. People were using leaf blowers right at the shrine when I went so it was not very peaceful. Very pretty but wouldn't go out of my way for this otherwise. The hike up is somewhat scenic though if you have the time.
Cute, right by the lake shore. Even got to see some deer in the woods close by. Get ready for a walk to visit. It's about a half hour walk and it can be hilly.
