Isn't there a lot of people going out? ?? By the way, when you think of spring and summer water activities, which fields do you think of, the sea, the river, or the lake? Speaking of which, I've been an easy-to-understand type of person for a long time since I was a student, saying, "Summer is the sea!" That's right.

I think that it is related to the birth of a child and the trend of camping and outdoor festivals in recent years, but it's kind of a relaxed atmosphere, and you can experience nature that is different from the sea. I'm starting to feel attractive where I can. Therefore, in this blog, from the lake that attracts the most attention, from the Fuji Five Lakes area that has Lake Kawaguchi and Lake Yamanaka, which are familiar to people living in Tokyo including myself, "Lake Motosu" has a reputation for high water quality and transparency. I would like to introduce a recommended experience plan for lake activities that you can enjoy at Lake Motosu ♪
