Lake Kitagata

A Beautiful Lake Offering Both Relaxation and Excitement

Lake Kitagata is a large lake near the northern coast of Fukui. The lake is a popular destination for outdoor activities such as fishing, and pedal-powered boats and bicycles are available for rental. It also serves as a place to relax and enjoy the iris flowers in June, and the beautiful surrounding landscape.

Every August, the lake is used as the venue for a national canoe polo tournament. Then, at the beginning of September, an evening event is held with lanterns arranged near the lake, ending with a fireworks show over the water.
