Mt. Kanpu, 355 meters above sea level, on the Oga Peninsula. It is a famous sightseeing spot for its revolving observatory where you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view, but it is also secretly popular as a place where there is a geospot “Windhole” known to those in the know. It is located at the bottom of the second crater, and when you put your hand in it, a cold wind blows out. On the way from Tsumakoi Pass to the golf course, you can find the information board called “Kaze-ana Iriguchi”.
