    森に囲まれて広々とした道の駅、中で食べても良いのですが天気の良い日はテークアウトして外でアイスをいただく方が気持ちよくて良いですね。 店内もかなり広いです。売店の奥にはひっそりとジビエが売っていますが珍しいお肉が多く思わず目に留まり買ってみました。

    田沢湖から、レンタカーを借りて昼をいただきました。 地元産の野菜や花直販、はちみつ、レ ストランも有って便利です。 地元酒蔵が経営する食堂も、美味しかったです。 ついでに、酒蔵に行って見学しました。 外国人の職員さんが英語で案内していたのは、びっくりしました。 酒蔵見学は、なかなか出来ないので、ラッキーな時間(無料・予約お薦め)でした。

    Akita Ogachi-gun Ugomachi Nishimonai Nakano 200

    羽後町に入って中心部にある道の駅、早い時間から混みあっています。 道の駅の中はあまり大きくはないものの地元の農産物や加工品がぎっしり並んでいて見ているだけでも楽しい。 トイレは少しコンパクト。羽後町名物のおそばを食べることもできますがジェラートもおいしいです。

Famed for its sake and samurai, Akita prefecture offers quintessential Japanese culture in a non-touristy setting. Alongside the celebrated rice paddies and historical sites of the region lies dramatic natural scenery in the form of the rugged coastline of the Oga Peninsula and the Dakigaeri Gorge, best visited in autumn, when the leaves begin to change color.
