Himenuma Pond in Rishiri Island 2 !

by Kazu

Near the lookout from where "Peach Rock- Momoiwa" could be seen, I could find the sign that showed the way to a small lake "Himenuma"on the hill. I remembered my last visit there with my wife so many years ago. Dark clouds were getting closer. 

Near the entrance of the trail around the pond, I found the river flowing out from the pond. It must be tough for fish to go up the river to this pond from the ocean. No splash could not be seen on the surface of the pond.

This is the trail around the pond. A senior couple was walking around the pond but would not complete the whole trail. The trail was not paved but well-maintained for tourists. I hope many tourists hit the trail again like before.
