Sukayu Onsen 반달가슴곰 출몰 정보

Sukayu Onsen has been seeing fresh black bear activity around Towada and Aomori Nozawa: on May 8, 2026, a single cub was spotted near the Onabuyama observation deck in Okuze, Towada City, and that same day visits to the Komakino archaeological site in Aomori City were suspended after repeated bear sightings there. Just before that, on May 7, 2026, bear signs and sightings also came in from Aomori Kobata and Kuroishi, showing the range is still active around the roads and forest edges people use most.

The busiest stretch of this area has been centered on Aomori Nozawa, Towada, and nearby mountain access points, with activity peaking in August 2025 at 76 incidents and staying high through September with 52 and October with 40. The broader record now stands at 754 black bear sightings, and the recent reports suggest the bears are still moving through the same travel corridors, observation areas, and woodland margins around Sukayu Onsen.
