About the water quality and color of the lake surface of Mikata Goko Lakes
The Mikata Five Lakes are known for their unique and characteristic water quality. Each of these lakes has a different degree of mixing of freshwater and saltwater, resulting in slightly different colors of water on the surface of the lake.
Below is a brief explanation of the water quality of the Mikata Five Lakes.

Lake Kugushi is constantly flooded with seawater. It is home to the largest variety of fish - Lake Hyuga
Lake Hyuga is dominated by seawater and has a high salinity concentration. There is a farm for fish such as yellowtail and puffer fish. - Lake Mikata
Unlike other lakes, Lake Mikata is the only freshwater lake. - Lake Suigetsu
Lake Suigetsu is also the largest lake among the Mikata Five Lakes, with a mixture of freshwater and seawater. - Lake Suga

Rainbow Line Summit Park
The summit park, which is connected to Mikata Goko Rainbow Line’s first parking lot, is accessible by lift and cable car.
This park is located on the summit of Mt. Baijodake and is a must-see for tourists visiting the Mikata Goko Rainbow Line.
There is an observation deck at the summit park, from which you can enjoy spectacular views.
You can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of Wakasa Bay and the Mikata Five Lakes, and you will be impressed by the beauty of nature.
There is an entrance fee to enter the mountaintop park, but it is definitely worth it.
There is also a monument to the song “Furusato” sung by singer Hiroshi Itsuki in the summit park, and a device has been installed to play the song.
This place is also certified as a “lover’s sacred place” and is known as a special place for couples who pledge their love.
In 2018, the mountaintop park was renovated in preparation for an increase in the number of vehicles passing by and the number of tourists, and a footbath and a terrace overlooking the Mikata Five Lakes were installed.
This has made the stay of visiting tourists even more comfortable.
Summit Park is the perfect place to enjoy the natural beauty and relaxing atmosphere, and is a must-visit spot on your Mikata Goko Rainbow Line sightseeing trip.
