hikitsukuri no Okusu [prefecturally designated natural monument] Hikitsuri no Okusu
This is a large camphor tree that has been selected as one of the 100 best trees in Japan, located on the grounds of atawa Shrine, which is enshrined with hikitsukuri Shrine.
The tree is said to be 1,500 years old, and its size is approximately 35 m in height and approximately 4 m in diameter, and its imposing and magnificent stance gives off a feeling of hugging those who see it.
At about 4 meters above the ground, the trunk splits into five large branches, and from a distance it looks like a camphor forest.
This large oak tree has been able to survive even after being cut down in the past, and is carefully protected by local people as kounogi, and the tree remains in good condition.
The name has been changed from "atawa no Daikusu" at the time of designation.
It was designated as a prefectural natural monument on January 22, 1936 (S11).
You can view and edit the sightseeing route (My Plan on My Page) that will take you around the selected spots.
