クワガタ幼虫に特化したツアーで、とても価値ある体験になりました。ホスト様は子供に優しく、また昆虫のみならず生物に博識で、そして手際よくと、これ以上ないくらいの満足なツアーでした。 プロは、木を見れば一発でわかるのでしょう。開始数分でクワ幼虫を見つけてからは、次々と見つかる見つかる。小6の息子は興奮し「パラダイスだ」と。 クワ幼虫と一緒にトカゲまでホスト様がつかまえてくれて、息子の顔は光輝いていました。 運良く、コクワガタ以外にも、ノコギリクワガタの幼虫まで発見できて「ママ。ミッション大成功だね。」と、どや顔で帰宅しました。 翌日は、ホスト様から情報をいただいた、横浜のクワタフェスタへ。虫熱が最高潮の中のフェスタだったので息子は興奮しすぎて食事も喉を通らないほどでした。 素晴らしいという言葉ではとても足りませんが、息子の夢を叶えてくださったホスト様には感謝してもしきれません。 また参加させていただきます。 引き続き、よろしくお願いいたします。

This event is held throughout the year, and after observing insects in the forest (larvae from autumn to spring), parents and children will explore the creatures in the river. On the day, gather at the meeting point and rent a Panasonic electric bicycle (with front and rear child seats, 20-inch and 24-inch MTBs are available for upper elementary school students) (free of charge). Put on gloves and go through the grass and turn over stones to catch fish and crayfish. Spring water and cold water points do not move, so you can catch them with your bare hands. The main targets for capture are turtles, frogs, catfish, Japanese mitten crabs, striped shrimp, Yamato swamp shrimp, American crayfish, Ukigoi, Chichibu, loach, Moroko, Motsugo, Japanese river snail, Taiwanese clam, dragonfly nymph, and river insects. Many creatures live behind the stones and many hide underneath, so turn over lots of stones to see them. Winter observations are easier to observe. We look forward to your participation and applications. If you cancel on the day, we will reschedule free of charge. If you wish to take fish home, please bring a plastic case and bubble tea (battery-operated; only the fish need oxygen). There are many paid parking lots at the local meeting point. We will meet at the market 10 minutes before the tour starts. If you are delayed due to traffic congestion, we would appreciate it if you could consider an afternoon Seesion or change the date. Thank you in advance. What to bring: Marine shoes, change of clothes, swimsuit, spats, rash guard, drinks, rucksack, plastic case for taking fish home, bubble tea What to prepare on our side: Electric bicycle (with front and rear child seats), rain boots (from November to mid-March), net, storage bucket

8月のお盆終わる頃に参加。ガイドさんいわく、ピーク過ぎているんだよ…とコメントありましたが、各スポットでクワガタ、カブトムシ採れる採れる。 でもピークは6月〜7月なんだそうで、来年はもっと早く来ようと思いました。 子供は沢山のカブトムシ、クワガタを持ち帰り、自分でも採る体験に大満足。ガイドさん、事前準備やら色々やってくれていたし、運転もとても紳士的で素敵な方でした。
