◆ What is the Environmental Symbiosis Forest (nickname: Mirai no Mori)?
It is an area where a forest is nurtured over many years through collaboration between local residents and the park, with the concept of "forest creation from scratch." It is affectionately called "Mirai no Mori" (Forest of the Future). As the forest grows, the number of creatures increases year by year, and 238 species have been confirmed to date. In September 2025, it was certified as a "Nature Coexistence Site."
