I was captivated by the beauty of the night view of the Sea of ​​Japan overlooking the plateau. The road to get there has some height differences, but the scenery is worth seeing.

The night view is beautiful and the weather is cool. The starry sky also looks beautiful. The manager is also kind. The mountain road is narrow in places so be careful of passing each other. I was bitten by a lot of gnats. It's like a neglected campsite in Niigata.

I was surprised at how beautiful the night view of Joetsu was.It was great to have a bonfire and drink while watching the night view.There are springs on the way here, so it's a good idea to get some water there.There is also a small athletic area, so children can play there while the meal is being prepared.The low price is also good!In the administration building, you used to be able to eat ramen, and it was a delicious ramen with melty meat, but it seems like they have stopped serving meals now.Also, there are a lot of insects in the summer, so if you don't like insects, it would be better to go in the spring or autumn.

I used it for Duo Camp with a friend at the end of Golden Week!The management is kind, and best of all, it's cheap! One tent for two people costs around 400 yen!It was good point·It's a nice view! Because it's on top of a mountain, you can see Joetsu City Myoko City and the starry sky at night is amazing!・The sites vary in size, but there is no set plan and you can stay at your favorite site by consulting with us during the tour.・My cheap Ymobile service won't go out of service!·cheap!Problems・The mountain road to the campsite is steep“Going up to the depths of Mt. Oita”・There is only one toilet. If you choose a site based on the scenery, it will be difficult to get to the toilet!! ️・The restaurant will not be open for the time being.・There is plenty of direct sunlight during the day as there is nothing to block it.Even if you look back at the contents, it's a little-known campsite, so it's perfect for campers who are intermediate or above! During hot weather, it may be difficult to see the scenery due to gas. I think you can enjoy very beautiful scenery in spring, autumn, and winter.Firewood for sale! There is a fishing pond!*The field is a divided site, and the upper part of the grass is soil. I'd love to! Please go and try it (o・ω・o)

This is a popular campsite with a great view. The night view is especially noteworthy. You can see the entire city of Joetsu, and it's really beautiful.Reservations are generally made by phone, but walk-ins are also possible if space is available. However, it is a popular campsite, so reservations are recommended.The campsite is located halfway up Mt. Minamihaya and is easily accessible, about 20 minutes by car from the city center of Takada. It's a mountain road so it's a little narrow.When we arrived around 12:30, almost all the sites were already occupied. I was aiming for the top of the mountain, but it seems to fill up quickly because it's so popular.There was an empty space on a slight slope in front of the administration building, so we decided to use this as our campsite. I enjoyed the scenery here as well. Cars are not allowed here, but there is a parking lot right next to the site, so transporting your luggage is easy. This site is convenient as it is close to the toilet in the administration building. You can drive into the site at the top of the mountain, but the toilet is only near the entrance of the site, and it is far away from the site at the back. The large kitchen is only located on the mountain side site, but there is water supply in and around the administration building.There are not many insects so there is no need to worry.There's almost no shade, so you'll die without a tarp in midsummer.The toilets are clean, but the equipment is quite old.The manager is very friendly and kind. We are always available from 8:00 to 17:00. You can buy firewood, charcoal, drinks and ice cream at the administration building. There used to be a cafeteria, but it is no longer open. The administration building has toilets and showers that can be used 24 hours a day.It's a good campsite and the price is cheap.In: AM10:00 ~ PM17:00 Out: ~AM9:00Business period: Late April to early November
