A summer resort in Okayama Prefecture-Hiruzen Jersey Land-the production area of Jersey cows

Would you like to go somewhere cool on an extremely hot day? This time, I’ll introduce a summer resort in Okayama Prefecture―Hiruzen Jersey Land. Hiruzen Jersey Land is in northern Okayama (Hiruzen-Nakahukuda, Maniwa City) and a leisure facility managed directly by Hiruzen Dairy Cooperative. The scenery is amazing and it’s cool because it is located on Hiruzen Kogen Highlands with full of greenery.2022-09-20

I ate a soft serve ice cream made from rich Jersey milk as soon as I arrived at Jersey Land. I can rarely eat it at other places, so it was really delicious.

After eating the good soft serve ice cream, I went down a path and saw tens and thousands of sunflowers which were in full bloom. I felt as if I had been in the kingdom of sunflowers. I was happy when I could see these sunflowers which are one of the summer features in Japan. Many people were taking pictures there.

When going further on the path, I saw a sign of Hiruzen Horse Park. You can meet famous race horses such as GⅠand GⅡ at the horse park. You can also feed ponies and ride cute horses.

Because I can’t ride a horse, I took a picture of a person who was experiencing riding a horse.

When I returned from the horse park, there was a cattle ranch in the northeast of a field of sunflowers. You can see a few Jersey cows on the back of the ranch. The cute art object of a calf is a photo spot. In combination of the blue sky, green mountains, the ranch and humans, you’ll definitely take a lot of nice photos.

If you’re not good at taking photos, you’ll be able to take great photos with the beautifully soothing scenery.

I was tired after strolling around. There are a shop and a restaurant at Hiruzen Jersey Land near the Jersey cattle ranch.

The shop sells various souvenirs. The best recommendation is Milk & Cheese Langue de chat used 100 % Hiruzen Jersey milk. Why don’t you get it for your loved one?
