Attractions of the Yame Course
”Feeling the tea-country Yame while witnessing the ancient Yame culture on its rolling hills.”

The course begins at Yamanoi Park along the adjacent Hoshino River.

Along the way are； the last-remaining ancient burials of Yame Kofun Cluster called Donanzan Kofun Tumulus, the region’s leading tea producer Yame Central Tea Garden, and National Historic Site-designated Maruyama Kofun Tumulus. The course is filled with stunning sceneries of rich mother nature in Yame. The views captured from the rolling hills of the region are nothing short of spectacular.
