Key Features

Experience nature in the Northern Alps, away from the city!

In the clear air and beautiful rural landscape of Azumino, nestled at the foot of the Northern Alps, children experience the coolness of the river, the scent of the forest, and the colors of the orchards with all their senses. Time spent playing wholeheartedly in nature transforms children's expressions, bringing them to life.

Authentic camping experience: pitching a tent from scratch

Children will set up tents from scratch and go camping. Using a manual created for children, they will work with their peers to pitch tents, fostering cooperation. Through the camping process, they will experience collaboration with their peers and a sense of accomplishment.

River play in a super-clear stream

In the crystal-clear streams flowing from the Northern Alps, children can safely enjoy river play while feeling the refreshing coolness and sparkle of the water with their whole bodies. Immersive, sensory-rich experiences in nature help nurture their curiosity and sensitivity.

Athletic activities in a National Park!

Located at the foot of the Northern Alps, Azumino National Park is the perfect playground, surrounded by fresh air and lush greenery. Here, you can fully enjoy nature and play to your heart's content, whether it's tackling log and rope obstacle courses in the forest or bouncing repeatedly on giant trampolines.

Apple picking in Azumino

Experience the sweet and fragrant Azumino apples, nurtured by the significant temperature difference between day and night. Picking the bright red apples with your own hands is a unique and special experience. We look forward to seeing your joyful expressions when you hold your favorite apple.
