Planning background This event was planned with the hope that it would be easy for beginners to try camping by covering the hurdles of “gathering the camping supplies” and “understanding how to set up a tent and use the supplies.” Furthermore, by allowing people to experience the charm of Kami Fureai Park Auto Campground, which is a facility that families can enjoy, we hope to increase awareness of the facility and increase the number of visitors. [Features of Kami Fureai Park Auto Campsite] Kimino Town is a town rich in nature, with a rich forest that occupies approximately 75% of the town’s area and clear streams. The Kami Fureai Park Auto Campground, one of the town’s tourist attractions, is characterized by its spacious plots and natural partitions, giving it a strong sense of privacy. In addition, there is an adjacent lawn area where children can play freely and a giant playground equipment, and on clear nights you can enjoy the starry sky, making it a facility that the whole family can enjoy all day long. [Future outlook] In addition to continuing to hold experience events for camping beginners using facilities in Kimino Town, we are also considering plans to help beginners step up, such as a “wood chopping experience for winter camping” and “a camping cooking class that takes a little time.” I’m doing it. Through our activities with Kimino Town, VASTLAND’s brand mission is to “improve the environment in which camping is difficult, even if only a little, so that more people can participate in camping activities and experience a sense of healing and happiness.” We would like to embody this idea.
