Iwaki River Park

Overview

Iwaki River Park is a beautiful park in Itayanagi Town, Kita-Tsugaru District, Aomori Prefecture, boasting stunning cherry blossoms against the backdrop of Mount Iwaki. Conveniently located a 15-minute walk from JR Itayanagi Station, the park sits on the riverbank. In spring, various cherry blossom varieties, including Someiyoshino, weeping cherry, and yaezakura, bloom profusely, while the surrounding apple orchards are also filled with white blossoms. The contrast of the blue sky, the snow-capped Mount Iwaki, and the cherry blossoms in full bloom is truly breathtaking. Well-maintained walking paths wind through the park, perfect for a leisurely stroll. During cherry blossom season, the park bustles with visitors enjoying picnics and hanami (cherry blossom viewing). Ample parking is available for those arriving by car. Iwaki River Park is an ideal place to connect with nature and unwind. While particularly beautiful in the spring, it offers stunning scenery throughout the year. Be sure to visit!
