The loop trail around Biwa-ike Pond is paved to accommodate wheelchair users, although some sections may be challenging with steeper slopes. This area is low-lying, making it hot in summer. Spring and autumn are recommended for their greenery and foliage. Sunshine trail connects to Mizunashi-ike trail. Both are individual loop trails that are connected at one end of Biwa-ike Pond.
Mizunashi-ike is very unique pond which changes with the seasons. Following the snow melt it is full with water and reflects beautifully, in autumn there is less water giving a different atmosphere in the same area to enjoy the gentle walk.
