Kamikochi Bus Tour Tokusawaen Camping for Beginners

Grading: 

Kamikochi before the full-blown summer season. Kamikochi is a hole season because precipitation is relatively low even in the rainy season and crowds do not occur. The green color from fresh green is beautiful and there is still lingering snow on the mountain. It is also worth seeing how the scenery changes from day to day, such as on rainy days and sunny days. Many flowers such as Renge azalea and Shokiran start to bloom. From the bus terminal, there is a flat road along the Azusa River. After two hours on the road with no traffic lights or signs, you will reach Tokusawaen, a small lodge-style hotel. We will stay in a pre-erected rental tent at Tokusawaen. You can also rent a tent with a blanket and a mat. ①Geo-dome "Buracan" with 2 meals included. Anyone can enjoy the outdoors with camping equipment carefully selected by a group of professionals. 2~3 people per tent. ②Affordable tent rental. Dinner is curry and breakfast is not included. 2 people in a tent. ③If you want to use the rental tent by yourself, solo camping is available for an additional ¥5,000. ④If you bring your own tent and sleeping bag, you can join at a more reasonable price. Please bring your own meals. In case of rain, you can eat your meals indoors. Breakfast can also be ordered at Michikusa Shokudo from around 8:00 am. Oven-baked pizza and honey toast are recommended. Although not very spacious, Tokusawaen also has a bath. Those who wish to take a bath can do so for 1,000 yen. Get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the chirping of birds and a natural planetarium to your heart's content. On the second day, take a leisurely stroll around Kamikochi. Passing Myojin Pond and Takesawa Marshland, you will visit the famous Kappa Bridge and Taisho Pond if you wish. The fresh green and vermilion color of Renge-tsutsuji azalea. You can enjoy the spectacular view of Mae-Hotaka rising in front of you.
