Furthermore, the seat belts, which protect the body, are a three-point system that holds both shoulders and the waist, and are made of the same materials as those used in automobiles, ensuring a high level of safety.

A request to our customers
For safety reasons, please check the usage requirements, such as height and weight.
While riding, Snow Helmet may come into contact with the sling belt due to the lateral movement of the vehicle.
Please carefully check for any looseness or other issues when wearing Snow Helmet, and ensure that it is properly fitted.
🌸Announcement🌸
Due to the snowfall on October 28th, the cosmos garden is no longer in a condition where you can enjoy the flowers.
We sincerely apologize to everyone who was looking forward to seeing the cosmos flowers in bloom, as we were unable to meet your expectations.
I sincerely apologize.
Additionally, within the flower maze, we have prepared a "True/False Quiz" that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.
Enjoy the autumn scenery and give it a try while taking a stroll.
At GALA Yuzawa, we have been working on creating a flower garden since this year.
Although we were unable to offer you a fully appreciated view this year, we will be working hard to prepare an even more beautiful flower field for you next year.
Please look forward to it!!
🌸These photos were taken on October 24, 2026, when the flowers were in full bloom🌸
