100 Forest Bathing Sites森林浴の森百選
About this collection
Japan still has many forests remaining, and among them, the places selected as the "100 Forest Bathing Sites" are those chosen by the Forestry Agency to promote the use of Japan's forests for health and recreation. The term "forest bathing" originally spread as a catchphrase for this selection, and the goal of the 100 sites is to pass on Japan's forests to the 21st century. Because there are 100 sites, some unexpected mountains are also registered.
First, in Hokkaido, Mount Hakodate is one of the 100 Forest Bathing Sites. Mount Hakodate is well known as a night view spot, but it is also recognized as a famous forest location. Other sites in Hokkaido include the Rishiri Island Nature Recreation Forest, which is also selected among the 100.
In the Tohoku region, the primeval forest at the source of the Abukuma River is known. This is a primeval forest stretching along the Abukuma River, and combined with the area's reputation for various crops, it was selected as one of the 100 sites.
In the Kanto region, there are various sites among the 100. Mountains in Tokyo such as Mount Takao and Mount Mitake were selected. Both are accessible from Tokyo and offer hiking opportunities, and were chosen as part of the 100 Forest Bathing Sites.
There are many sites in Kyushu and Okinawa as well, including famous places like the Yakusugi cedar forests and remote island mountains such as the Iriomote Nature Recreation Forest, which are also among the 100 selected sites.
