1) Departure from Makiba Garden

Enter the Makiba Garden and meet at the start point of the Farm Tractor Ride. A farm guide will meet you and confirm the tour route.

(2) Tractor leaves Makiba Garden for undisclosed area

The departing tractor proceeds through Makiba Park to an undisclosed area.

The tractor rattles along at a leisurely pace. On the way, the guide explains the history of Koiwai Farm and the forest. Many of our customers have said, “Wow, I didn’t know that! I didn’t know that!

(3) To a pasture with a view of Mt.

If the weather permits, we will go to a large meadow overlooking Mt. Enjoy a commemorative photo in the beautiful scenery that can only be found at Koiwai Farm.

(4) Tractor going through a 100-year-old forest

Once outside the Makiba garden, the tractor moves into a dense, deep forest. Koiwai Farm is one of the few farms in Japan that combines dairy farming and forestry. The beautiful nature here has been carefully cultivated over more than 100 years by our predecessors to suit the harsh climate of the southern foothills of Mount Iwate.

(5) Photo stop at 100-year old cedar forest road

Go to the 100-year old cedar forest road where you can clearly see that the forest of Koiwai Farm was planted tree by tree and created by human hands. You can see a straight skyline that looks as if it has been sliced straight out of the sky. Here, too, we stopped the tractor for a commemorative photo. After turning off the engine, the silence of the forest envelops us.

⑥ Continue through large meadows and forests and return to the Makiba Garden.

The tractor will return to the Makiba Garden, following a path that overlooks a large pasture and a small path that offers beautiful fall foliage in the fall. Farm tractor rides offer different scenery and fun in each season. We encourage you to charter this tour for your small group trip!
