What this area is like
Goshogawara’s Tachineputa festival in early August parades floats over 20 metres tall. In Kanagi, the writer Dazai Osamu’s family home is a museum, and the Tsugaru Railway runs stove-heated trains in winter.
Plan your visit
The Tsugaru Railway starts at Goshogawara. Cape Tappi at the northern tip is easiest by car.
