First opened in 1927, this ski ground is one of the oldest in Shikoku. It was restored and reopened in 1997, and includes 5 downhill courses and a three-person chairlift. Even if the winter warms, the snow can be restored with a snow-making machine, so the hill is always in the perfect state for skiing. The grounds include play areas for children and night skiing is also possible.

“Ryudou-no-Taki”-The road leading to the basin of a waterfall is well maintained. The waterfall drop is 20 meters and water is so clear so that you can collect for drinking. It is told that Koboudaishi once trained at this waterfall long long time ago. “Kongou-no-Taki”-When you walk up the hillside road for further 300 meters from the Ryudou waterfall, there appear the stream of waterfall as though piercing through the mountain green. The waterfall, dropping 40 meters, is bursting through gaps of sheer rocks. Being surrounded by the natural forest, it is sometimes called as “the waterfall with Japanese maple tree”.

This kind is also known for longevity among various kinds of cherry trees and some are still standing after 2,000 years. This particular cherry tree of Shimokubo is said to be over 300 years old and 4 main trunks spreading out at the height of 1.2m above the ground have even more branches of their own. The tree has grown to the height 19m, the circumference 6.66m and its root spreads 34.2m east & west, 24.8m north & south. It is standing alone stately on the ground. Today, this cherry tree is still very much in excellent form and looks dignified. The tree was designated as the natural monument by City of Miyoshi in September 2011.
