And we also cruise Omuro which is a mysterious cave, Tsurugi-iwa rock (it looks like a sword), Eboshi-iwa rock (it looks like the headgear worn by noblemen in court attire) and Byobu-iwa rock (it looks like a folding screen), which are certified as scenic spots in Lake Towada. ●Tour time : 60 minutes
