Often overshadowed by the bright lights of Osaka or the historic temples of Kyoto, Harvest Hill is a hidden gem loved by locals and a perfect escape for tourists. Harvest Hill offers a variety of activities: try ziplines, Go-Kart races and Kansai’s longest grass slide. For a more relaxed experience, go horseback riding or pick seasonal fruits. The park also has homemade products like sausages, smoked chicken, craft beer and sweets such as Baumkuchen and cheesecake. You can enjoy them at the restaurants or take some home from The Harvest Shop. There are several dining options, whether you want a quick snack or a sit-down meal. If you have a sweet tooth, the Baumkuchen Factory is a must-visit.
