Introducing the best outdoor experience tour for self-guided tours sponsored by Yatsugatake Outdoor Activities!

Walking in the forest with your family
This is a program where you can enjoy the charm of nature in each season with your family. Listen to the voices of wild birds, touch the cold waters of the plateau, look for traces of animals, discover the fun of the forest with your five senses, and walk slowly. Let’s spend time in nature together from small children to adults.

Mountain kayak
Kayaking at the foot of Mt. Yatsugatake at an altitude of 1,600m. Enjoy the world on the water while enjoying the fresh green in spring, the blue sky and refreshing breeze in summer, and the autumn leaves in autumn. The guide will carefully guide you on how to hold the paddle, how to ride a safe kayak, and how to row stably. Since it is held in a regulating pond where there are almost no waves, even children and first-timers can participate with confidence.

Segway park ride
A tour around the village of Moegi on the next-generation mobility “Segway”. A Segway that can run independently even though it is a two-wheeled vehicle due to the function of the balance sensor. It is an eco-friendly vehicle that makes almost no sound because it is driven by a battery and a motor. It is an attractive program to tour the garden course and forest course of Moegi Village with the guidance of an instructor.

E-bike cycling tour
It is a slow and easy cycling tour to go around the scenic spots at the foot of Mt. Yatsugatake with an electrically assisted bicycle. Not only can you enjoy the view from the scenic spots scattered along the course, but you can also visit tourist spots and historic sites to listen to the guide’s commentary, stop by the guide’s recommended break points, and take a walk by bicycle at a speed that does not work hard.

Kiyosato Snowshoe Hiking
A winter program where you can enjoy hiking in the empty snowy forest wearing the snowshoe. If you wear snowshoes, you can walk comfortably even on deep snow without diving. Let’s go looking for the footprints of forest animals while breathing in the taut air of winter! Since it is a tour with lunch, the guide will do its best to entertain you at lunch time.

Bonfire cafe
While enjoying the nature of the approach with the guidance of the guide, pick up the firewood and go to the secret river. Once you have set the fire on the firewood you picked up, it is the beginning of a quiet healing time. Enjoy making grilled marshmallows and hot sandwiches while being wrapped in a warm and gentle fire. This is a recommended program that anyone from children to adults can participate in from autumn to early summer.
