We will experience scavenging in a small river about 2km upstream from Akiya Coast, but it is shallow and has clean water. Since the rocks are exposed in places, it is slippery, so marine shoes are essential for this tour. (Free rental of idiot boots from autumn to spring) We plan to head upstream for about 1.5 hours in a swimsuit and marine shoes while being explained about the creatures. We plan to search for river crabs and mitten crabs, mainly scavenger goby, flat shrimp, and snake black dragonfly larvae in the rock river. The meeting place is Akiya bus stop, and there is a parking lot nearby, but it is expected to be crowded, so we recommend coming by train and bus. We look forward to your participation. What to bring: Marine shoes (from the end of March to October), swimsuit, rash guard, spats, drinks, hat, rucksack, plastic case for taking home + bubble (battery-powered oxygen supply machine) What you need to prepare: Idiot boots (from November to mid-March), net, storage bucket That's all.

This tour takes you up Mt. Kintoki, the highest peak on the outer rim of the Hakone volcano, and allows you to see flowers with a different look to those found at Lake Ashi or the grasslands of Sengokuhara. The area is also famous for the legend of Kintaro, so you can enjoy climbing while thinking about history. The view from the peak after reaching the top is a spectacular sight that you should see at least once in your life. It is also highly recommended for those who want to start mountain climbing.

This is a trekking tour where you can enjoy the nature of Hakone. The setting for the tour is Miyanoshita in Hakone Town. As you walk through the Showa retro town, you will come into contact with the history of the good old hot springs, and while thinking about history, you will walk through the dynamic natural valley that formed the basis of the hot springs. You will encounter moss and ferns that live in the moist environment at the bottom of the valley, and we will guide you into the microscopic world of moss using a magnifying glass! In addition to the tour, you will also have the opportunity to experience crafting as a memento of your trip. (Of course, you can take it home!) Enjoy the dynamic nature of the valley, the history of hot springs, and the Showa retro townscape of Miyanoshita, full of charm.
