With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up all that Shinonsen, 18 miles away, has to offer. See the sights starting with Shichikama Onsen Yuraku Museum, Yumechiyo Museum and Tajima Farm Park Ski Area. Tottori is another popular option. It’s 18 miles away and offers a range of awesome things to do. Azo Ski Park, Shiroyama Shrine and Kawahara Central Park are only the start.
