One of the most well-known treasures of Chatan Town isn't in the trendy Mihama American Village shopping district along Route 58 but is hidden in the hills high above the ocean.Tobaru Park is a mixed use recreational area with jogging and hiking trails, wide open grassy areas and lots of athletic courts a fields. It's best known for it fast 83 meter long roller slide that is a must see if visiting central Okinawa with children. The slide and nearby playground equipment will keep them excited and busy. There are restroom facilities and vending machines inside the park. Tobaru Park is very difficult to find. My best recommendation is to go south from the Lawson convenience store on Route 23 and look up past the buildings for the wooded hill and observation tower that can be seen from the roadway. The park is accessible 24 hours a day but the parking areas are cordoned off during the late evening and early morning hours.
