The Concept of This Program

This two-day, one-night nature experience program takes you from Tokyo to Oku-Hitachi Kirara Village in Ibaraki Prefecture, via train and bus. Aimed at preschoolers, it fosters independence and self-esteem through playing in the mountains and forests and group living. Enjoy the facility's athletic equipment, roller slides, interacting with animals at the petting zoo, and even Japan's longest, 1,200-meter exciting slide! Children will enjoy the program. Our staff will support children as they stay overnight away from their parents for the first time, ensuring they feel at ease.
