The Rebun Usuyukiso Colony is a viewing area for the official flower of Rebun Town. The plant usually blooms from June to July along the Rebun Forest Path.


Rebun Usuyukiso is a perennial alpine plant found on Rebun Island. Fine white hairs cover its leaves and stems, giving them a pale, woolly appearance. The plant is closely related to European edelweiss and is designated as the official flower of Rebun Town. Its flowering season is generally from June to July.


The colony can be reached by walking about 2 kilometers along the Rebun Forest Path. Seasonal alpine plants grow along the route, giving visitors opportunities to observe the island’s vegetation.


Depending on weather conditions, hikers may also see Rishiri Island and Mt. Rishiri across the sea. At the destination, visitors can observe Rebun Usuyukiso growing in its natural habitat and examine the fine white hairs that distinguish its leaves and stems.
