Very nice spot to take a break and get up close to squirrels. Demanding little buggers, but cute.

Some of the squirrels seemed quite injured, and had a lot of skin conditions. It was very troubling, even if they were cute.

Hungry cute squirrels. 400 yen entry if you have a rope way ticket.

Visited on a weekend with my son. He was quiet disappointed though because the squirrels were inactive. I guess they ate too much when the earlier visitors fed them. Entrance fee: ¥400 for adults and ¥300 for kids. If you have a roundtrip Kinkazan Ropeway ticket, you get a ¥100 discount

A nice little place! There were only three other people when I went. Cheap, and the lady kindly refilled my food supply a few times for me. The squirrels at times are aggressive with each other, never with the Giver of Food however. I did get them jumping on my leg/arm/shoulder a few times so be careful if you're uncomfortable around them. The enclosure walls also gave me some great ideas on how to squirrel-proof my bird-feeder.
