この並木はツリーイングなどで、階上の子ども達の自然に親しむ広場ともなっています。登山口の入り口にあり、たくさんの登山者も訪れることから、広い駐車場もあります。またこの場所にはお土産・食事処フォレストピア階上もあり賑わっています。

  This stand of Japanese Zelkova serves as a place to play and experience nature for the children of Hashikami. Used for treeing and other activities, its location near the trailhead of Mt. Hashikamidake means that many hikers also pass through here. A large parking lot with public restroom facilities (open yearround) accomodates these visitors, who also enjoy buying local produce and food products at Forestpia Hashikami, a small shop and restaurant located next to the Japanese zelkova stand. Forestpia also serves many flavors of handmade gelato, crafted with locally sourced cow's milk and fruit and vegetable produce.
