春採公園

Harui Park is a public space in Kushiro featuring wetlands and river channels with multiple pathways winding through marsh vegetation and open meadows. The grounds include several pavilions, picnic areas, and recreational facilities spread throughout the landscape.

The land transformed from agricultural use into a public recreational space, now forming part of the largest wetland ecosystem in Japan. This shift occurred as communities recognized the need to protect and open natural areas for public access.

The site draws people seeking to celebrate seasonal transitions, especially during spring when cherry blossoms attract crowds for outdoor viewing and gathering. The grounds reflect the local relationship with wetland ecology and nature-based traditions.

Parking areas are available near the entrance with signage directing visitors to pathways and facilities. Conditions vary by season, so appropriate footwear and layered clothing are helpful for comfortable exploration.

The area serves as a critical habitat for numerous bird species, especially during migration periods when Japanese cranes arrive in the wetlands. This seasonal activity makes the site particularly valuable for birdwatchers and demonstrates the ecological importance of the region.
