Izumi Nature Park, located in the rolling Hokusō Plateau, is home to many animals and plants and is a great place to enjoy the natural environment throughout the year. The park attracts large crowds in both the spring and fall, as its autumn colors are just as beautiful as the cherry blossoms. New facilities were built in 2018, including a treetop ride at Forest Adventure Chiba and a camping ground with barbeque grills.
