Lake Hibara-ko

Information

Lake Hibara-ko, 40 kilometers in circuit, is the largest lake in Ura-Bandai. The lake is picturesque with jagged shorelines and numerous islets. On the lakeshore are many campgrounds and bungalows. On the south bank there is a boarding point for sightseeing boat, and on the north bank there is a Torii gate of Oyamazumi-jinja Shrine which enshrines a village sunk in the lake by a volcanic eruption. There is also a circuitous road along the lake and rental bikes are available. In winter, the lake is covered with a thick ice and many people visit here for smelt fishing.
