Fumin no Mori Hoshida Park (府民の森ほしだ園地)

Katano

Hoshida Park features a huge forest and is maintained by Osaka Prefecture. Countless hiking courses give you a chance to reconnect with nature and there is also a 16.5–meter climbing wall. The scenery is beautiful in every season and especially popular in fall when the landscape is painted in autumn hues. The Hoshi no Branco Bridge (aka Star Swing) is particularly impressive. At an altitude of 180 m and a length of 280 m, this suspension bridge is one of the largest in the country. It hangs 50 m above ground and affords breathtaking forest views.
