Omoriyama Park Camping Ground

#asiabudgetchallenge
Omoriyama Park Camping Ground is nestled within Akita City’s scenic Omoriyama Park, adjacent to Omoriyama Zoo and the expansive Green Plaza. It offers five modest tent sites (~2 m × 2 m) on grassy terrain, with a shared cooking area, rustic latrine, and no hookups—ideal for minimalist or educational outings. The camping area is free to use, though you must register by phone in advance through the zoo’s management office by the day before arrival.

Rough Budget:
• Tent site: Free
• Shower facilities: Not available onsite
• Nearby snack or meals: ~¥1,000–¥1,500

Travel Tip / Hack:
Call by mid‑afternoon the day before to confirm site availability and choose your preferred numbered plot. Pack a portable stove or grill (since only cassette or BBQ stoves allowed) plus fire protection like a fire‑sheet. Arrive early to enjoy evening views from the park’s observatory and visit the zoo or Anipa amusement park nearby.
