Rokkosan Pasture
Pasture farm in Kobe, Japan From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rokkosan Pasture (神戸市立六甲山牧場, Kōbe Shiritsu Rokkōsan Bokujō) is a public pasture farm situated in Mount Rokkō, Kobe, Japan.[1]
The construction of a pasture farm on Mount Rokkō was already considered in as early as 1975, when surveys on the pros and cons of building such a pasture were taken.[2]
Known for its "beautiful natural settings",[3] a handful of animal species can be found roaming about in Rokkosan Pasture. This includes cows, goats, horses, and sheep.[4]

There are a few restaurants at the pasture.[5] Horse riding opportunities are available at the pasture.[6] In addition, visitors can have the chance to make their own select food items, including ice cream,[4] as well as feed some of the animals on the farm ground.[7] The Kobe cheese-making process is available for public view.[4] The pasture is a half hour drive from Kobe below Mount Rokkō,[8] and is linked to the mountain's ranch.[5] Rokkosan Pasture can also be reached by cable car.[9]
The temperature at Rokkosan Pasture is at its highest in August, and at its lowest in both January and February.[10]
