FORMER JAPAN NATIONAL RAILWAYS MIYAHARA LINE WALKING TRAIL

This is a railroad that connected Oguni in Kumamoto Prefecture with Kokonoe in Oita Prefecture and was used for 30 years before becoming a disused line. Although there are no rail tracks anymore, it has been maintained as a walking trail extending for about 4 km. You can enjoy the atmosphere of a bygone era, as there remain tunnels and an arch bridge along the way.
