栢島の展望台であるが、行く人は限られているらしく展望台下の駐車場まではすれ違い出来ないほどの細い道である。駐車場からは急登を数分歩く。 素晴らしい景色であるが、栢島は若干遠景過ぎる。

Kochi Areas
The largest of Shikoku’s prefectures, Kochi is endowed with some of the island’s most exceptional sand beaches lining the Pacific Ocean, which narrows into the Shimanto-gawa, a huge river that stretches 196 kilometers into the prefecture, passing verdant mountains and hosting countless riverside activities. Whether you’re a pilgrim or not, Kochi’s 16 Buddhist temples that make up one leg of the Shikoku Pilgrimage are worth a visit, particularly Chikurin-ji for its five-tier pagoda.
