Rokkosan Pasture

The construction of a pasture farm on Mount Rokkō was already considered in as early as 1975, when surveys on the pros and cons of building such a pasture were taken.^[2]

Known for its "beautiful natural settings",^[3] a handful of animal species can be found roaming about in Rokkosan Pasture. This includes cows, goats, horses, and sheep.^[4]

There are a few restaurants at the pasture.^[5] Horse riding opportunities are available at the pasture.^[6] In addition, visitors can have the chance to make their own select food items, including ice cream,^[4] as well as feed some of the animals on the farm ground.^[7] The Kobe cheese-making process is available for public view.^[4] The pasture is a half hour drive from Kobe below Mount Rokkō,^[8] and is linked to the mountain's ranch.^[5] Rokkosan Pasture can also be reached by cable car.^[9]
