Momo Land

Momo Land

VIEWPOINT

Momo Land is an unused children’s play park connected to the Nishiizu Kogen Ranch House. From an altitude of 750 metres you can look over the Suruga Bay and the surrounding areas. Please note that last time I visited the park was closed off, however you are able to drive here for some amazing views.

There is a free car park available.

Review

Momo Land is a great hidden spot I found just driving about the Izu Peninsula. Unfortunately the play park is closed off (as of May 2021), however you are able to drive here and admire the amazing views if you arrive on a good day. There is a clear view of the Suruga Bay and the surrounding areas. There is also an ostrich farm, just make sure you don’t try and pet or feed them!

I couldn’t find the place on Google Maps so head towards the Nishiizu Kogen Rest House and walk slightly down the road. At the curve you should see the top of the play park to tell you where to go. There are two paths which take you down here. Head to the bottom to reach the ostrich farm.

I haven’t yet eaten or stayed at the rest house, however if you drive up this way make sure to at least treat yourself to some ice cream. This area is famous for its milk and boasts to have some of the best ice cream in the Izu Peninsula!

RECOMMENDED ROUTE:

Momo Land is only available by car as public transport does not go up this mountain road. Please note that the map shows the restaurant but the play park is nearby. Head slightly down the road and you should see it.
