A camera pin is not always a place to visit

The pin marks the camera facility or a documented reference point. Some cameras are on hotel roofs or broadcast buildings that visitors cannot enter. Check the entrance to the place you actually plan to visit.

The closest station by coordinates is Shinshimashima Station, 17.7 km from the camera reference point in a straight line. This is not a verified walking route or recommended access station. Check the visitor destination and its official access information.
