The wooden walkway in the wetland below is in disrepair and I think there will be injuries soon.As a result, entry is prohibited and the wetlands are no longer looked after, allowing natural succession to proceed and becoming uncontrollable.

I like the dolmen and Yatake Shrine near here. We also stayed at a house at the campsite, and enjoyed dancing and doing Osho work in the hall inside the administration building. I went there for Yukino Oki's retreat. Really the best🥰💕🌈

・For both bungalows and permanent tents, areas where fires such as bonfires and barbecues can be used are limited.・When using the bungalow, we recommend bringing IH compatible cooking utensils. (Not all of them seem to be IH.)・There are 4 Maltais on the table inside the bungalow. Refrigerator, air conditioner, bath, and bedding provided. There are sponges and detergent in the kitchen.- There is an air conditioner in the bungalow, but your feet will be cold, so we recommend bringing room shoes or slippers.・The gate will be closed after 17:00 and you will not be able to drive out.・There are no shops or vending machines in the administration building.・In the summer, you can see moss moss and sandhill cranes in the wetlands.・Take your trash home with you.・Softbank is out of service area.

It only takes about 40 minutes to climb up and down the mountain, but the scenery is spectacular.

During the summer, you can see the world's smallest dragonfly. The red one is the male and the tiger pattern is the female.

We used a tent site (1500 yen). Perhaps because it was a sunny day during the rainy season, we were able to spend a quiet and relaxing time in a private room even though it was a Saturday and Sunday.⭐︎3 reasons!1. Check-in is at 14:00 and check-out is at 10:00, so I would like to extend the stay a little longer.2. Only tents can be pitched at the tent site, so there is almost no space to put a tarp or table.3. Cell phone reception is unstable, sometimes not.good pointsThere are free showers, a 10-minute climb to the top of Mt. Hakutake, and a scenic view of the summit of Mt. Hakudake. Descending from the administration building, there is a stream where small children can play in the water.

I use it every year!In winter, there are fewer guests and bungalows are half price.
