I wanted to camp in Kamikochi, but found out that private cars weren't allowed there, so I searched for a nearby campground. 🌼
And boy, did I find the perfect campground! \(*°∀°*)/
▶︎ Located at an elevation of about 1,200m, this campground offers views of the birch forest and a fishing pond. ⛺️ The waterside bungalows are like something out of When Marnie Was There. 👩🦳
▶︎ There are a whopping 104 campsites! The expansive grounds mean the perfect distance between neighbors. ✨ This is heaven for those tired of overcrowded campgrounds due to the camping boom. 🫶
▶︎ The tent sites are divided into five sections. Each campground offers unique features, such as a view of the pond or the opportunity to enjoy forest bathing. 🌳🐿
❞ Recommended Activities ❞ After checking in and setting up camp, take a short break and then try fishing in the early evening. 🐟 Grill your catch on the BBQ and toast with a beer. 🍻

▶︎ Landlady's Tip ☑ Bungalows and gear rentals are available, so it's recommended for camping beginners! Just be sure to pack warm clothes! A thick jacket is essential, even in midsummer. ⚠️⚠️
☑ You can eat the river fish you catch in the pond right there. 🐟 Of course, you can rent fishing rods and bait!
☑ The campground has coin-operated showers! If you prefer a relaxing soak in a hot spring, you'll receive a discount coupon for a nearby hot spring after checking in!
