Echizen Coast stretches in the west side of Fukui Prefecture from Tsuruga in the south all the way to Sakai city in Mikuni region in the north. Being designated as a national park this beautiful coastal view is much beloved by visitors nationwide. You would come across some rare type of rock formation along the road which runs right next to the water. There is a cape called Echizen Misaki in which you can see narcissus grow in mass. Their flower season comes in winter between December and March. To get the best view of this cape you can go up on the hill side along the road. Up in the north is a place where the water flowing out from Kuzuryu River. the land formation of this area is sticking out in a shape of a Japanese letter of く into Japan Sea. This long stretch of a saw-toothed coastline would surely fascinate your eyes on your visit. The part starting from a point where route 204 connects to route 8 is the beginning of Shiokaze Line which goes all the way toward north until a point the road joins to route 305.

(Translated by Google) 2024.6.27 I drove near the sea (Isabi Kaido) and went a little farther to visit. The destination is the left and right fishing ports. The waves of the Sea of ​​Japan are surging, and behind them are dizzying and severe cliffs. Because I saw a video like that. There are dead ends on both the right and left, and it is said that it was named left and right (so) because of the topography. However, daffodils bloom on top of the 100m cliff, and peregrine falcons build nests on the cliff. It's a great place for wary birds. From spring to early summer, when the weather is calm, he goes on a raft to pick seaweed. There is a decision to leave the stock and allow new buds to appear. If there is a lot of seaweed, fish and shellfish will also gather there. A fishing port that has inherited the wisdom of its predecessors, and the satisfaction rate was 100% ✌ (Original) 2024.6.27 海の近くを走って(漁火街道)一寸遠出して訪れました。目的地は左右漁港。日本海の波が押し寄せ、後ろには目もくらむ様な厳しい崖が有る。そんな映像を見たからね。 右も左も行き止まり、そんな地形から左右(そう)と名が付いたとか… ところが、100mの崖の上にはニホンスイセンの花が咲き、崖にハヤブサが巣を作る。警戒心の強い鳥には絶好の場所である。 春から夏の前の海、天候が穏やかな日には筏に乗ってワカメ採りをするという。決め事が有って株を残して新しい芽が出るようにする。海草が多いと魚や貝も集まる。先人からの知恵も受継いだ漁港、満足度100%でした✌
(Translated by Google) I ran at sunset, and it was great because you can run along the coast without much ups and downs. (Original) 夕日の時間に走ったが、このあたりは起伏もそこまでない中で海沿い走れるので最高
(Translated by Google) Descendants of brave adventurers The scenery is amazing. Driving along the coastal road is comfortable. To the east is the vast and beautiful Sea of ​​Japan. There are many places where there are steep cliffs on the west side, where you can sometimes see ferries and container ships sailing, but there are waterfalls scattered about. There are many shops nearby that sell seafood, especially Echizen crab. Many inns and shops are no longer open. There are also bathing facilities scattered throughout the area. When I drive here, I feel like I'm boiling over. Simply put, I'm excited. It seems that our Japanese ancestors came from across the ocean from places like Taiwan. It seems that they risked their lives to cross the river, having been repeatedly blocked by the Kuroshio Current using unskilled navigational techniques and a simple structure. When they see an island across the ocean, they can't help but cross the ocean and wonder, "What's over there? What kind of world is there?" The Japanese are a group of people with extraordinary curiosity, energy, and a sense of adventure. It seems to be one of the ancestors of Out of an instinct to preserve life, there are many who think, ``Crossing the black sea is terrifying. It's okay to stay as is.'' However, there are people who dare to make the decision and take action to cross the waves. The Japanese are descendants of outrageous adventurers. I come from a rural area, and I grew up hearing that ``Japanese people are an agricultural people.'' However, I thought that if all Japanese people were descendants of agricultural people, they would be able to accomplish this much. In a university lecture, he said, ``When Japanese people see an island across the ocean, they feel strongly that they want to cross there. Peninsular people (people living on the Korean peninsula) hardly think of such things. When I heard that the Han Chinese (mainland people) of northern China avoided going into the water as a barbarian thing, I felt a jolt in my knees. That's why Japanese people are so active. That's why Japanese people like to go abroad. I was convinced. When I came to the Echizen coast, I felt a surge of emotion and thought, ``Ah, my ancestors must have come from Taiwan with these same thoughts.'' I feel very happy when I realize that I am the descendant of these incredible adventurers. (Original) 勇敢な冒険野郎達の末裔 景色がすばらしい。海沿いの道のドライブは快適。東側は広やかでキレイな日本海。たまにフェリーやコンテナ船が航行しているのが見える西側が急峻な崖となっている場所が多いが、滝が点在している。付近には海産物、特に越前ガニを提供してくれるお店が多い。 今は営業していない旅館やお店も多い。入浴施設も点在している。僕はここをドライブしていると沸き立つような思いがする。単純に言ってワクワクする。 我々日本人の祖先の一派は、台湾島などから海を越えてやってきた人々らしい。未熟な航海技術と単純な構造のフネで、黒潮に何度も阻まれながら、命を賭してわたってきたらしい。海の向こうに島をみると「あそこには何があるのか?どんな世界があるのか?」と渡海せずにはいられない、並外れた好奇心、行動力、冒険心を持った集団が日本人の祖先の一派らしい。生命保存の本能から「黒々とした海を渡るなど恐ろしい。現状のままでよい」と思う者が多いなか、敢えて波濤を越えていく決心と行動を起こした人たち。日本人はとんでもない冒険野郎達の末裔だ。 僕は農村地帯の出身で「日本人は農耕民族だから」と聞いて育った。しかし日本人の全てが農耕民族の末裔ならば、これだけのことを成し遂げられものか、と思っていた。大学の講義で「日本人は海の向こうに島が見えると「あそこに渡りたい」と強く思う。半島人(韓半島に住む人々)はそういったことは殆ど思わない。華北の漢民族(大陸人)などは水に入ることは蛮族の風として忌避してきた」と聴いたときは膝を打つ思いがした。だから日本人は活動的なのだ。だから日本人は海外に行くのが好きなのだ。と納得した。 越前海岸にきて沸き立つ想いを感じ、「あー、僕のすっげぇ前のご先祖さまもこういう思いで台湾島からやってきたんだろうなー」なんて思う。 自分がとんでもない冒険野郎達の末裔であることを実感して、とてもうれしくなる。
(Translated by Google) The clear blue sea, the sun setting in the Sea of ​​Japan, and the sea breeze caressing your hair. The sea is so beautiful that I am speechless. You'll be glad you took the drive. In the evening, it is a good idea to take a bath in the open-air bath while watching the sunset over the Sea of ​​Japan at the roadside station Echizen. (Original) 透き通った青い海、日本海に沈む太陽、髪を撫でる潮風。 言葉を失うほど美しい海です。ドライブしてて来て良かったと思うでしょう。 夕刻になったら道の駅越前で日本海に沈む夕陽を眺めながら露天風呂に入るのも乙です。
(Translated by Google) What an amazing cliff! Visited on Thursday, July 14, 2021 Going down from Tojinbo along the coast leads to the Echizen coast. The location is wonderful, and the cliffs with strangely shaped rocks will touch your heart. By the scenery, is this Japan? It's so amazing that I thought. There are parking lots at key points and points where you can see the scenery, so you can enjoy it! Although it is a road along the coast, it is clean and paved, and there are two lanes, so you can drive safely! If you found it helpful, please click it!

Very interesting also for foreigners, maybe bring a translator so with you. The museum offers a walk through different stages of the sea level, it showes a variety of fish and ofcourse crabs. you can walk underneath a big water rounding and see fish swimming above your head. It is also very good for kids offers a lot of fun games and information.
Nice little museum right beside the crab market about the crabs for which the place is so popular, the history of the fishery, and with a little interactive area at the end where kids can put their drawings up onto a screen, and play some small games. There's also a 10min short film that plays every 20-30min. Everything is in Japanese so be prepared to use your imagination.
A nice and out of the norm museum. Very well maintained place. Very good place for the family. There a game with big screen to test out your boating skills for crabbing 🦀.
Interesting place where they explain the whole process of crabs and the different types of crabs.
This was a fun little museum with enough activities to keep my six-year-old daughter entertained for a couple of hours. A little out of the way, but a good place to go if you like to get off the beaten track. And the prices of the crabs in the shop next door were eyewatering.
Echizengani Museum : Echizen Crab Museum 越前ガニミュージアム Echizen Crab Museum is located right across the road from Road Station of Echizen Coast. In this museum you can see a large variety of marine creatures live in this area. Each show room has its own theme built in a property space of 300 square meters. The facility was built in 2016. You are also able to enjoy hands on trial of operating a ship for hunting crabs. Admission fee is 500 yen for adults and 300 yen for children. When you just entered the course there is a ramp way spiraling down the hall with a miniature of traditional townscape of Echizen Coast where fishermen live. The ramp way leads you all the way into the depth of the ocean bed where Echizen crabs live at the bottom. ( TGM Japan Guide : Trans-word+ )
A simple but interesting exhibit. The underwater tunnel was very cool. Though I believe the museum is more for children. Still was good fun.
Very good place for understand KANI culture in Japan

Echizen Misaki : Echizen Cape & Echizen Land of Suisen ( Daffodil ) 越前岬水仙ランド Along the coast of northern part of Echizen is a place where you can go uphill near Echizen Cape. There is an observation deck up on the top of the hill overlooking a beach. This hill is known as a colony of Echizen Suisen ( Daffodil ) bloom in winter ( from late February to mid-March ). The place is called " Land of Suisen ". This spot is designated as one of the most beautiful 100 spots to observe sunset in Japan. There is a winding path paved with stones around the hill near the top with facilities open to public. If you ever come to visit this area between late March and late May do not miss to check the calendar for their night illumination event. There is a monumental light house shedding a soft beam of light around the hill. It was built here in 1954 as a landmark. Further going up the hill the road leads to observation spots placed in two different location. From the top observation deck you can see the best view of sunset along the coast. ( TGM Japan Guide : Trans-word+ )
(Translated by Google) Climb up from National Route 305. As you climb further up from the lighthouse, there are two observation decks. It's tough unless you're using a car or bike for training purposes. The observation deck at the top is a roadside parking lot, and there is a parking lot halfway up the mountain. The sea view from the mountain is amazing. The lighthouse is said to be in its second generation due to the ground. There is a literary monument related to Cape Echizen. (Original) 国道305号線から登って行きます。灯台よりさらに登っていくと展望台が2か所あります。トレーニング目的でなければ車かバイクでないときついです。上の方の展望台は路駐で中腹からはきちんと駐車場があります。 山から見下ろす海の景色はすばらしいです。灯台は地盤の関係で2代目だそうです。越前岬に関連した文学碑があります。
(Translated by Google) 2025 February 16th I visited the daffodil flower garden. However, even at this time of year, it is not in full bloom and only blooms for 8 minutes⁉️ Moreover? The wind was strong... There was no smell. Besides! ? The essential daffodil field had been destroyed, and the wild boars and deer had dug it up and eaten the bulbs. Although the bulbs are highly toxic, they are edible! ️ I was surprised😱 but? I really enjoyed it! 🅿️The parking lot is a pink frame! The front area is reserved for the restaurant, so don't worry! ️ The flower garden is in the 🟣 frame! Observation deck ❷ is 🩵follow the colored arrow❗️ My favorite flower scents are daffodils, jasmine, and roses.I also like lilies, even though they have a strong smell! By the way? 😊 The only famous daffodil perfume is Guerlain's Night Flight! The world's first flower perfume? It seems that Queen Marie Antoinette commissioned Ubigan to make them! What does she like? Apparently it was 💐roses and violets💐😊 Until then, the mainstream was musk! ? There was a wide range of animal products, such as ryuyoka (whale stones). Also! Please come and try it! Sea breeze and blue sky! If the time is right, you will be healed by the scent of daffodils and the refreshing scenery 😊 (Original) 2025 2/16日 水仙の花畑を見に訪れました。でも、この時期でも満開でもなく8分咲き⁉️ しかも?風が強くて… 匂いがしませんでした。 それに!?肝心の水仙畑は荒らされていて(猪や鹿🦌)が掘り返されて球根が食べられていました。球根は毒性が強いのに食べれるんや‼️ とビックリ😱 でも?それなりに楽しめました! 🅿️駐車場はピンクの枠!手前はレストラン専用ですので悪しからず‼️ 花畑は🟣の枠です! 展望台❷は🩵色の矢印のの道順で❗️ 花の香りで好きなのは、水仙に、ジャスミン、薔薇🌹百合も匂いがキツイですが好きです! 因みに?😊 水仙の香水は有名どころでは、ゲランの夜間飛行だけです! 花の香水は、世界で初めて?マリー・アントワネット王妃がウビガン社に依頼して作らせのが始まりだそうです! 彼女の好みは?💐薔薇とすみれ💐だったそうです😊 それまでの主流は、ムスク!?龍涎香(鯨の結石)など動物性が幅を利かせていました。 また!来てみて下さい!潮風と青空!折良ければ水仙の香りと清々しい情景で癒されます😊
(Translated by Google) I went there on a new moon day. There are two observation decks, and it's easier to access than you might think, as you can park your car in the parking lot or on the side of the road and walk up the stairs for 1-2 minutes. The starry sky was beautiful. The restrooms are also clean, so it's a relief. (Original) 新月の日に行きました。展望台は2つあり、駐車場や路肩に車を停めて階段を1.2分歩けば着きますので思っているよりアクセスは良かったです。星空はとても綺麗でした。トイレも綺麗なので安心です。
(Translated by Google) I went there on a stormy summer day. I managed to take some photos during a break in the rain, but the wind was so strong that I felt like I was going to be blown away. It's located quite high above sea level, so the views are amazing. (Original) 夏の大荒れの日に行ってきました。 雨の晴れ間を縫って撮影しましたが、風も強く吹き飛ばされそうでした。 海面よりかなり高い位置にあって眺めも最高です。
(Translated by Google) 2025.11.20 I would love to visit this place during the daffodil season, but I'm worried about crossing the mountain pass on my motorcycle tour from Kansai, so it's a shame I can't make it there often... (Original) 2025.11.20 水仙の時期にも是非来たい場所ですが、関西からのバイクツーリングやと峠越えが心配でなかなか来れないのが悔しい…
(Translated by Google) If you're in Echizen and the weather's nice, be sure to stop by. They have a crab branch that's less crowded than the main store. The view is fantastic, and the food and staff were both excellent. (Original) 越前来たら天気良かったら寄りましょう カニ支店があり本店より空いている 何より景色が良い 料理もスタッフも最高でした

(Translated by Google) Former country company. It is called Echizen Kuni Ninomiya. The parking lot is on the north side of the shrine and is shared with the Echizen Town Oda Cultural History Museum. You can enter the precincts from three directions: north, east, and south, but the main one, with the vermilion torii gates on both sides, is on the south side. Visited the shrine on August 3rd. The shrine office was destroyed in a fire in December 2021, and construction work to rebuild it was underway. Currently, a temporary shrine office has been set up, and gifts and gifts can be received there. There were also restrooms, vending machines, and a rest area. It was a scorching sun that day, so I was grateful to be able to take a break in the middle. (Original) 旧國弊小社。越前國二之宮といわれています。駐車場は神社の北側で、越前町織田文化歴史館と共用。境内には北・東・南の三方向から入れますが、メインといいますか朱色の両部鳥居があるのは南側になります。 8月3日に参拝。2021年12月に社務所が火災で焼失してしまい、再建のための工事が行われていました。現在は仮の社務所が設けられており、授与品などはそちらでお受けできます。 お手洗い、自動販売機、休憩所もありました。この日は炎天下だったので、途中で休めるのはありがたかったです。
(Translated by Google) A friend guided me here. It had been raining until then, but it had stopped when I arrived. I thought this was a good fate. It didn't rain while I was praying. They even wrote my goshuin (red seal) for me. (Original) 友人に案内して貰ってこちらに。 それまで雨が降っていたんですが、到着したら止んでいました。 これは良いご縁だなと思いました。 参拝中も雨は降らずでした。 御朱印も直接書いていただきました。
(Translated by Google) This is a shrine connected to the Oda family in Ninomiya, Echizen Province. The goshuin also had the Oda family crest on it. At the time of my visit on November 9, 2024, the shrine office was under construction and I received a goshuin seal at the temporary shrine office. It was a place rich in nature with forests. There is a parking lot. (Original) 越前国二ノ宮・織田家にゆかりある神社です。御朱印にも織田家の家紋が入っていました。2024年11月9日訪問時、社務所は工事中で仮設の社務所にて御朱印を頂きました。森林があり自然豊かな場所でした。 駐車場あります。
(Translated by Google) Since I came to Fukui, I wanted to visit the shrine at least once. Oda, Echizen-machi, Fukui Prefecture, as the name suggests, is the birthplace of the Oda family of Sengoku warlords. It is said that he was once the priest of this shrine. It is said that Oda Nobunaga valued it very much as his roots. The Goshuin stamp is handwritten and the Oda family crest is designed on the Goshuin book. This is the Fukui Ninomiya Shrine, which was founded in 1800. (Original) 福井に来たので一度は参拝したいと思いました。福井県越前町織田、名前の通り戦国武将織田家発祥の地です。この神社の神主を昔していたとの事です。織田信長は自身のルーツとしてとても大切にしていたそうです。御朱印は直書きで御朱印帳は織田家の家紋がデザインされてます。創建1800年の福井二之宮の神社です。
(Translated by Google) It is a highly prestigious shrine located in the Oda area as Echizen Ni no Kuni. It is said that the name of the Oda clan was taken from the place name Ota. It is said that it was worshiped as a guardian deity by Nobunaga Oda and was especially protected. There were many shrines there and it seemed like there would be good fortune. (Original) 越前二ノ国として織田地域にある格式の高い神社です。織田一族の名は織田(おた)の地名から取ったとも言われているようです。織田信長から氏神として崇拝され格別に保護されたそうです。多数の社があり御利益がありそうでした。
(Translated by Google) Pilgrimage on February 6, 2024 The north parking lot is easy for tourists to find, and is spacious and easy to park in. I'm talking about the Echizen-cho Oda Cultural and Historical Viewpoint Parking Lot... For those who want to visit from the south, there is a small parking lot in front of the south torii gate. For my faith, it takes about 30 minutes to enter the shrine grounds, but if you finish greetings here and there, you'll need 60 minutes. This place is probably related to Oda Nobunaga, but in a sense, I think it's a shrine named after Oda Nobunaga. The goshuin is 1000 yen!! No one would stop you from going even if you heard that... (It's not a goshuin that feels special) The current shrine office is prefabricated, and I could hear talk about labor costs from behind the screen, and the male model statue enshrined reminds me of Komaki's Tagata Shrine, and the national treasure of the history museum next door is an ancient temple bell, right? ? For some reason, this visit didn't quite sit well with me. (Original) 令和6年2月6日巡拝 観光者には分かり易い北側駐車場は広くて停め易い。 越前町織田文化歴史観駐車場のことだが・・・ 南からお参りされたいとこだわる方は小さいけど南鳥居前に駐車場は用意されている。 私の信心では約30分ほどの境内だが、あちらこちらとご挨拶を済ませると60分は欲しい境内です。 ここは、織田信長ゆかりなんだろうけど、ある意味、織田信長にあやかった神社だとも思う。 御朱印は1000円!! と、聞いても行くことを止める人は居ないだろうけど・・・(特別感は無い御朱印) 現状の授与所はプレハブだし衝立の後ろから人件費の話も聞こえてきたし、男性の雛型が鎮座するのは小牧の田縣神社を思い出すし、隣の歴史館も国宝は大昔の梵鐘だし?? 私の中では何故かしっくりこなかったお参りでした。。。
(Translated by Google) Our second day in Fukui began with a visit to Tsurugi Shrine, said to be the birthplace of the Oda clan. Apparently, the place name is Ota. It really felt like Echizen had many places associated with emperors and princes. Since I was carrying my suitcase, I was able to climb up to the shrine and offer distant homage. Oda Shrine, a subsidiary shrine, is located to the right of the main hall. When I asked to receive a goshuin (temple seal) at 9:00, the head priest and the woman were very kind and explained the local dialect, such as "hoyahoya" (hot spring) for the train I was planning to ride. A cat interviewed by photographer Iwago came out and let me pet it and take photos. It was adorable. (Original) 福井2日目の始まりは織田一族発祥の地とされてる劔神社さまへ。おたという地名みたい。越前は本当に天皇や宮さま所縁の地が多いと感じた。キャリーケース持ってたから登れる社さまには遥拝。摂社で織田神社が本殿右にある。9時に御朱印を拝受のお願いをしたら住職さんや女性の方も親切にしていただき、乗る予定のほやほやなどの方言を教えていただいた。カメラマンの岩合さんに取材された猫ちゃんがお出まししてくれて、触らせてくれて、写真も撮らせてくれて可愛いかった。

The place is relaxing. The trees in autumn season are beautiful. I think its also very good place in sakura or spring season. They have also a small fish pond, and the lightning set up for evening, though im not yet see it because i cant go at night. But i think its beautiful.
Lovely gardens! Be sure to check out the seasonal festivals for all your pottery needs
Its a educational place

I didn't use it, but they also had a service where you could drink coffee and other drinks from cups made by a ceramic artist, which looked interesting. I think it would be fun to find your favorite one. (Original) 七夕のイベントの時に行ってきました。 短冊に願い事を書いたり、七夕に関する焼き物の展示などなかなか見ていて面白かったです。 利用はしませんでしたが、陶芸家の作ったコップでコーヒーなどが飲めるサービスもあり面白そうでした。 お気に入りを見つけるのも楽しいと思います。
(Translated by Google) I was going to eat soba at Daikonsha next door, but I left my car in the general parking lot and took a walk~🎶 On this day, the Echizen Ware Thanksgiving Festival was held, and the works of all the artists were available for purchase at discounted prices. Originally it was a concert hall, but it was well displayed and sold on the spot, making it easy to see and understand. It was fun to be able to enjoy coffee in my favorite cup and have a ceramic speaker. As expected, the nursing room in the photo is also neat. (Original) 隣のだいこん舎にお蕎麦を食べに行くのに総合駐車場に車を置かさせて頂き散策〜🎶 この日は越前焼感謝祭が開かれており、作家の皆さんの作品が放出価格で購入出来ました。 本来はコンサートホールですが、上手に展示、即売をされていて見やすくわかりやすかったです。 お気に入りのカップでコーヒーを頂けたり、何気に陶器のスピーカーがあったり楽しかったですよ。 さすが、写真の授乳室もキチンとあったりします。
(Translated by Google) The inside is sometimes used for events such as Tanabata, and there are various works of art available for purchase inside. There is a coffee corner on the right side of the entrance, where you can drink coffee with your favorite work, and if you like it, you can also purchase it. (Original) 七夕等のイベントで中が使われている時あります、館内は色々な作品もあり購入可能です。入口右手には珈琲コーナーがあり気に入った方の作品で珈琲を飲む事もできます、気に入ったら購入も出来ます、
(Translated by Google) On the last day of July 18, 2021, I watched “Ceramic Coolness 2021 ~Towards the Future~”. The light overflowing from the simple and gentle pottery was wonderful. I purchased one piece of cute size and light. (Original) 2021.7.18最終日に「陶の涼感2021~未来へ~」を見てきました。 素朴で優しい陶器から溢れる明かりが素敵でした。 可愛らしい大きさと明かりの作品を一つ購入して来ました。

(Translated by Google) I went there after stopping by Daffodil House on Sunday, March 10, 2024. Cape Echizen Lighthouse is one of the main navigational aids in Fukui Prefecture, and is 16m high. It is a historic lighthouse that was first lit in 1940. You cannot go inside the lighthouse. The weather was nice on this day, and I was able to see the sea very clearly (⁠^⁠^⁠) There were a lot of daffodils in bloom, and the best time to see them is around February. If you go further up from this lighthouse, there is an observation deck, but the slope is steep, so I went there by car. I want to come see the sunset next time (⁠^⁠^⁠) (Original) 2024年3月10日の日曜日に水仙の舘に寄ってから行きました。 越前岬灯台は福井県の主要な航路標識の一つで16mの高さがあり、昭和15年(西暦1940年)に点灯した歴史のある灯台です。灯台の中に入ることはできません。 この日は天気が良く、海がとても綺麗に見ることができました(⁠^⁠^⁠) 水仙の花がたくさん咲いていましたが、2月頃が見頃だそうです。 この灯台からさらに上行くと展望台がありますが、勾配が急なので車で行きました。 今度は夕陽を見に来たいですね(⁠^⁠^⁠)
(Translated by Google) Approximately 16m high, first built in 1940. The current building is the second generation of the white lighthouse built on a small hill. The surrounding area is well maintained and has the atmosphere of a tourist lighthouse. Visibility is good and you can see the sea at the same time. The first generation was said to have stood near a cliff, and the staff built and managed a field on the premises. Later, an investigation revealed that it was unmanned due to automatic lighting and that the ground was weak, so a second generation was built a little closer to the road in 2008. The first generation lens is on display at the nearby Daffodil Hall. If you deviate from Route 305 and go up the hill, you will find it along the road. The slope of the slope is quite steep, so it can be a little tough in winter. Free parking available. I think the second parking lot, which is a little bit uphill after the lighthouse, is close and easy to use. (Original) 高さ約16m、初点は1940年。小高い丘に造られた白い灯台で現在の建物は2代目となります。周辺は整備されており観光灯台の雰囲気がある。視界は良好で海と同時に見ることができる。 初代は崖の近くに立っていて職員が敷地内に畑を造り管理していたそうです。のちに自動点灯による無人化、地盤の弱さが調査で判明し、2008年に少し道寄りへ2代目が建てられた。初代のレンズは近くにある水仙の館に展示されています。 国道305号線を逸れて坂を登り進めば道沿いにあります。坂の勾配はかなりキツく冬期は少し厳しいかも。 無料駐車場有り。灯台を過ぎて少し登った所の第2駐車場が近くて利用しやすいと思います。
(Translated by Google) This lighthouse offers a fantastic view. It stands quite high above sea level, giving it an almost frightening sense of height. It's a lighthouse that represents the rough Sea of ​​Japan. (Original) 素晴らしい眺めの灯台です。 海面からかなり高い位置に建っているので、怖いくらいの高度感があります。 荒々しい日本海を代表する灯台です。
Small lighthouse and not much to see (in September at least). I think there are a daffodil like flower that blooms other times)
(Translated by Google) I visited at the end of May on a sunny day. It is a strange feeling that the sun is strong and hot but the wind is strong and cold. As you go up the long steep slope, you will see the lighthouse and a little further on there is a parking lot. There's a QR code somewhere where you can get a digital lighthouse card, so don't forget if you're collecting them. Come to think of it, I received a real card at the Narcissus House next door, but what the heck? (Original) よく晴れた5月末に来訪。日射しは強く熱いのに風は強く冷たいという不思議な感覚。長い急坂を上っていくと灯台が見え、その少し先に駐車場があります。デジタル灯台カードが入手できるQRコードがどこかにあるので集めてる方はお忘れなく。 そういえば隣の水仙の館で本物のカードもいただいたけど、何だこれ。
(Translated by Google) The weather was nice, so I visited there for the first time in a while. This lighthouse is located within Cape Echizen Narcissus Land, and there is a parking lot, so it is easily accessible. The best views are from Observation Deck 1 and Observation Deck 2 above the lighthouse. You can go there by car, but there is no parking lot, so please park on the side of the road where there is a space. The wind was cold, but it felt very good. (Original) 天気が良かったので、久しぶりに訪れました。越前岬水仙ランド内にある灯台で、駐車場もあるので、アクセスは良いです。景色が良いのは、灯台より上にある展望台1と、展望台2からの眺めです。車で行けますが、駐車場は無いので、スペースのある路肩に止めて、行ってください。風は冷たかったですが、とても気持ち良かったです。
(Translated by Google) Cape Echizen Lighthouse is a single-flash white lighthouse that was first lit in 1940. The first generation rotary 4th class Fresnel lens is on display at the "Daffodil House". Please check it out! You can see the beautiful Sea of ​​Japan and the lighthouse from the observation deck on the cape! I was blessed with great weather, and next time I would like to visit when the daffodils are blooming 😃 (Original) 越前岬灯台は1940年に初点灯した単閃白光の灯台です。 初代回転式4等フレネルレンズは「水仙の館」に展示されてます。是非チェックしてくださいね! 岬の展望台から美しい日本海と灯台を眺めれますよ!私は天候に恵まれ最高でした、今度は水仙の咲く時期に訪問したいです😃
(Translated by Google) The Sea of ​​Japan seen from the hill was so blue that, along with the lighthouse, it was a wonderful view that you could stare at forever. It's not a tourist attraction that would be listed in guidebooks, but if you go with no expectations, I'm sure the scenery will be impressive! I think a sunny day would definitely be nice. (Original) 高台から見る日本海はとても青く、灯台と合わせて、ずっと見ていられるような素敵な景色でした。 ガイドブックに載るような観光名所ではありませんが、期待せずに行くと感動的な景色であることは間違いないと思います! ただ晴れた日が絶対いいと思います。

(Translated by Google) I was able to see a wonderful view on a clear autumn day♪ Today, due to circumstances, I went to the shrine directly by car. Surrounded by a beech forest, the fallen leaves are spread thicker than a carpet, and the indescribably comfortable feel and the sound of the sound as you step on it washes away your soul! Next time I will try from the lower trailhead! (Original) 秋晴れの素晴らしい絶景に出会えました♪ 今日は都合で車で神社直下まで行きました。 ぶな林に囲まれて落葉が絨毯以上の厚みをもって敷き詰められ、何とも心地よい感触と踏みしめる音色が心中を洗い流してくれます! 次回は下の登山口から挑戦します!
(Translated by Google) I climbed it because it is one of the five Echizen mountains. Although it was a sunny day, the mountain trail was shaded by trees and cool, and the path was well maintained, making the climb very comfortable. Along the way, there was a parting road between the forest road and the old road, so I chose the old road for the climb and the forest road for the descent. The Tokko water was trickling, but it didn't dry up, and it cooled down my flushed body a little. Ochi Shrine is also well-maintained, and Okunoin is at the top of the mountain. Although it was only a short distance, I passed a few people along the way, and even though it was a low mountain, I was told not to underestimate it. The Echizen Gozan consists of Mt. Hakusan, Mt. Hino, Mt. Monju, Mt. Yoshinogadake, and Mt. Ochi, and is said to have been founded by Taicho Daishi. (Original) 越前五山の一つということで登りました。 晴れの日でしたが登山道は木陰でヒンヤリ、道もしっかり整備されていて非常に快適に登ることができました。 途中、林道と旧道の別れ道があり、登りは旧道、下りは林道を選択しました。 独鈷水はチョロチョロながらも枯れておらず、火照った身体を少し冷ましてくれました。 越知神社も手入れされており、奥之院が山頂になります。 道中少しでしたがすれ違う方もいらっしゃり、低山とはいえ侮るなかれ、といった感じです。 越前五山は白山、日野山、文殊山、吉野ヶ岳、越知山からなり、泰澄大師が開山したと言われているそうです。
(Translated by Google) Mt. Echi is a 612.8 m high mountain located in Fukui Prefecture that has been counted as one of the Echizen Five Mountains along with Mt. Hakusan, Mt. Hino, Mt. Monju, and Mt. Zao. There were lots of flowers blooming and I was able to walk comfortably. (Original) 越知山は白山、日野山、文殊山、蔵王山とともに越前五山の一つに数えられてきた福井県にある標高612.8mの山。 たくさんのお花が咲いていて気持ちよく歩くことができました。
(Translated by Google) Hatsukoshi Chiyama 2024/5/15 I walked in the fresh green sunlight filtering through the leaves. I forced the Jizo statue to have a handmade hat and apron, but the sizes matched... Sorry 🙏 It was a long journey, five hours round trip, but it was a very good memory. The toilet (flush) was clean. (Original) 初越知山 2024/5/15 新緑 木漏れ日の中を歩きました お地蔵様に手作りの帽子と前掛けを無理やり~でもsizeが合わす…。 ごめんなさい🙏 往復五時間の長い道のりでしたがとても良い思い出になりました。 トイレ(水洗)綺麗でした。
(Translated by Google) It's only a few hundred steps from Ochi Shrine to the top of the mountain, which can be reached by car. The shrine area is large and you can also visit Mt. Betsuyama. If you go to Mt. Bessama, you will find historical relics related to the Echizen Gozan, so be sure to visit them. There is a large paved parking lot approximately 400 meters below Ochi Shrine. There is a toilet in front of the shrine. (Please be careful not to park in front of the shrine.) There is a sign that says you can go to Mushuugaike in 3km from this parking lot. (Original) 車で行ける越知神社から山頂までは数百歩、あっという間です。神社エリアは広く別山なども回れます。別山まで行くと越前五山に関する歴史的遺物がありますので、是非足を運んでほしいです。 越知神社の下約400メートルに舗装された広い駐車場があります。神社前にはトイレがあります。(神社前には駐車しないようにご注意下さい。) この駐車場から武周ヶ池まで3kmで行けるという標があります。
(Translated by Google) Climb Mt. Ochi, where Taisumi Shonin lived, from the Ogawa Forest Road. I took a wrong turn on the way, but I think it took about three hours to get from the community center at the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. From the forest road, you enter an old mountain trail, and there are stone Buddhas along the way, giving it the feel of an ancient trail. There is a resting place with a stone Buddha along the way, and if you go down from the resting place, you will find a water hole called ``Dokukosui''. The water looks like it's dripping from the moss, but it looks like it's drinkable. The rest area was comfortable with a cool breeze passing through. (Original) 泰澄上人のいた越知山を小川林道から登山。途中で道を間違えましたが、麓の公民館から山頂まで三時間というところかと思います。林道から昔の登山道に入りますが、途中には石仏などもあり、古道の風情がありました。 途中石仏のある休憩所があり、休憩所から下に行くと「独古水」という水場があります。水は苔から滴り落ちる形ですが飲むことができるようですね。休憩所は涼しい風が通り抜け快適でした。
(Translated by Google) I walked the Ogawa course (Gyojamichi) to the summit and back. There is a parking lot at the Oku-Ito multi-purpose assembly facility at the trailhead. There are display boards on the course from the 1st station to the 10th station (summit) 613m, so it's easy to see the remaining distance. Although the distance is long, there are spots such as Ochi Shrine, sacred trees, and Sentai Jizo statues around Murodo, where you can feel the history of mountain worship. It is one of the five Echizen mountains founded by Taicho Daishi, along with Mt. Haku (2702m), Mt. Hino (795m), Mt. Monju (365m), and Mt. Yoshino (Mt. Zao) 547m. (Original) 小川コース(行者道)を歩いて山頂往復しました。 登山口の奥糸生多目的集会施設に駐車場があります。 コース上には一合目〜十合目(山頂)613mの表示板が設置されているので残りの距離がわかりやすいです。 距離は長いですが、室堂周辺には越知神社、御神木、千体地蔵などのスポットがあり山岳信仰の歴史が感じられます。 白山2702m、日野山795m、文殊山365m、吉野山(蔵王山)547mと共に泰澄大師が開山した越前五山の一つ。
(Translated by Google) Park your car at the Oku-Ito meeting hall. It takes about 2 hours to climb🤔 intense ups and downs Among the Echizen Gozan, excluding Mt. Hakusan, The toughest one Although the slope is not that high If you don't bring food, you'll be in trouble😟 Until near the top of the mountain Looks like you can go there by car. It’s almost as if you reached the summit at the 9th station🤗 (Original) 奥糸生の集会所に車を止めて 登りだいたい2時間ですな🤔 アップダウンが激しく 白山を除く越前五山のなかでは 一番きついほうや 勾配はそこまでではないが 食い物持参しないとヤバくなる😟 一応山頂近くまでは 車で行けるみたいやね 実質9合目で山頂着いたも同然やね🤗
