那須街道 赤松林1

A natural red pine forest stretches for about 3 km along both sides of the Nasu Highway.
This area is the famous Nasu Highway Red Pine Forest.
Hydrangeas are also planted here, creating a landscape that is fitting for the gateway to Nasu.

About 40,000 red pine trees grow here, and they are symbolic trees of Nasu. The area is part of a national park.
Walking under the soft sunlight that comes through the branches feels very pleasant.

One unfortunate point is that a road runs right next to the forest.
However, the view of the red pine forest from the car is also pleasant, so many people still enjoy it.

Please watch out for traffic when you cross the road so that you do not get hit by a car.
Because this area is in a national park, I think it would be better if the road design kept cars from speeding.


(Kaori’s Highlights)

那須街道 赤松林6

When you visit the Nasu Highway Red Pine Forest, I especially want you to see this place.
This is the Forest Commemorating the Birth of Princess Aiko.
Trees were planted here to celebrate her birth.
It is moving to think that this forest grows together with Princess Aiko.
