    The public Yatsugatake Ranch is located along the Yatsugatake Kogen Line in Nishiide, Oizumi Town, and this park was created in one section of it. You can see goats and other animals grazing in the pasture, as well as enjoy specialty products made in the prefecture at the restaurant. There’s also a tent selling agricultural products, as well as mountain crop classes and carpentry classes offered at the community hall. An event called the “Makiba Walk” has participants do a circuit around the whole ranch.
