On the right bank of the Suitsu River you can see both old and restored boatsheds, which were and still are used to store the necessary fishing equipment. At the sheds both the local fishermen and the tour boats of visitors of the national park depart to the river. A path leads from the recreation site to the observation tower and a hiking trail.
