For families, how about a 3-hour fishing tour from early morning, afternoon, or evening when you are staying in the Fuji Five Lakes area? We also offer one-day sightseeing guides, skiing and snowboarding lessons, and Jukai and cave tours. This is a nature experience tour around Mt. Fuji, and is basically an experiential weekend plan for elementary school students and pre-schoolers who want to enjoy the great outdoors around Fuji. Girls can also participate as children. We look forward to your participation as a parent and child. Please arrive at Lake Motosu by 8:00 a.m. Fishing is best in the morning. In the summer, it is also possible to catch them in the evening. They also have the habit of eating stink bugs and cicadas. On the day, we will meet at Lake Motosu and start fishing for rainbow trout early in the morning at Lake Motosu. The theme is fish, animals, and insects in the great outdoors. We will give a fishing lecture in the morning and aim for native rainbow trout. While you are not catching any fish, we will plan various things to enjoy, such as rummaging around for Yoshinobori and catching insects (there are beautiful stink bugs), observing wild birds, and looking for driftwood. Please take this opportunity to enjoy rainbow trout fishing. Experience a pull that is far superior to that of trout caught at managed fishing areas. You can take home up to 10 fish you catch. Please bring ice in a cooler box. It is also convenient to bring a folding chair. The best time to fish is in winter, when you can fish in shallow waters, and in spring and autumn, you can fish a little deeper, and in summer, you can cast from the cliff and search for areas around 30 to 50 meters. So, this is a fishing that can be done all season, but the fish in North America are lively and delicious in the cold. Please purchase a fishing ticket under the supervision of the Lake Motosu Fisheries Cooperative Association. It costs 1,000 yen for adults. Also, I have been living here for 30 years. I have a villa near Mt. Fuji at 1,200 meters, so please contact me for sightseeing, meals, plans, etc. Recommended places are Fujinomiya Yakisoba, Mume-san Fujiyoshida Udon, Takegawa Hoto, Kosaku Hills Burger, Hand-made Soba at Lake Kawaguchi Oshino Hakkai, and Ikemoto Chaya Sightseeing, which has a Fuji Trout Farm, feeding, and managed fishing area.

<Fixed quantity picking and take-home plan> ▼ Introducing the plan ▼ *Rare white strawberry Shinjuhime ** Winner of the Bronze Award at the Tabechoku Strawberry Grand Prix 2025 * Among the Grand Prix-winning varieties, our Shinjuhime is the only white strawberry. We carefully select and grow "Shinjuhime," which is particularly sweet and fragrant among white strawberries. It is the offspring of the "Momo-kaoru" variety, which is famous for its peach scent, and is characterized by a peach flavor and sweetness that makes it hard to believe it is a strawberry. Since "Momo-kaoru" is a pink strawberry, it is no exaggeration to call "Shinjuhime" "pure white peach scent." The skin and seeds are white, so the whiteness stands out even among the varieties called white strawberries. It is characterized by its sweetness and strong fragrance, which can be compared to the nuances of ripe fresh peaches, yellow peaches in syrup, and lychees. Since it is a new variety that has just been born, only three producers nationwide are cultivating it. This is a pick-and-seek strawberry picking, so you can pick your own 150g pack of strawberries. The plan includes the price of picking a 150g pack. ▼About our farm▼★★Ranked #1 in the annual strawberry picking popularity ranking★★ (2022 season, Hokuriku, Koshinetsu area) Karuizawa's winter and spring strawberries are characterized by their melting sweetness. The strawberry picking house is located in a plateau at an altitude of 1,000m, so the temperature difference between day and night creates strawberries with a rich flavor.

Children younger than that should be watched by a parent or guardian.) Planing from a square piece of wood!? It may seem difficult, but our craftsmen will carefully teach you how to use the plane. We have been making chopsticks for 13 years. We have made chopsticks with over 13,000 people so far. Among the 10,000 people, there are famous celebrities and announcers (*^-^*) ~ Flow of the day ~ ① "Decide the wood and length." Decide the material of the chopsticks and the length of the chopsticks. ② "Explanation of the process ~ Start by being taught how to use the plane ~" Planes vary depending on the user! The amount of time it takes to shave varies depending on the individual's stance. Therefore, the time spent on chopstick making varies depending on each customer! ③ Process 1. Make the chopsticks thick enough to be easy to use 2. Shave off the corners 3. Polish with sandpaper 4. Add the name with a hot pen 5. We take them in and paint them.
カンナを使用するのは初めてだったので、なかなか上手に削ることができませんでした。 でも、慣れていくにつれドンドン削れていくので逆に四方均等に削ることが難しかったのですが、楽しい経験でした。 色々と丁寧に最初から最後まで教えていただき、作成することができました。 木材の切れ端で、ストラップも作成させていただきありがとうございました。 とても嬉しかったし、楽しかったです。 また予約段階の電話でも、丁寧に対応して頂き、何も心配なく工房に向かうことができました。 とても幸せで楽しい時間(体験)でした。 箸が届くのが待ち遠しいです。

≪Karuizawa Garden Farm, 40-minute tasting of multiple varieties, premium course≫The premium course allows you to enjoy all-you-can-eat red strawberries of multiple varieties for 40 minutes. The types of strawberries are Benihoppe, Kaorino, Yotsuboshi, Yayoihime, Koiminori, etc., and there are about three varieties depending on the growing conditions. ★Our farm's "Kaorino" is a special strawberry that won the taste evaluation of the "1st Strawberry Championship" hosted by the Japan Vegetable Sommelier Association, and "Yotsuboshi" is a special strawberry that won the taste evaluation of the "2nd Strawberry Championship". ▼Information about our farm▼★★Top ranking in the annual strawberry picking popularity ranking★★ (1st place in 2019, 1st place in 2022, 4th place in 2023, 2nd place in 2024: Hokuriku Koshinetsu area, Ikoyo survey) Karuizawa's winter and spring strawberries are characterized by their melting sweetness. The strawberry picking house is located in a plateau area at an altitude of 1,000m, so the temperature difference between day and night creates strawberries with a rich flavor. Although the harvest volume is reduced by the time-consuming manual bud picking (thinning), we have devised a way to create strawberries with a rich flavor that you have never tasted before. Please enjoy this experience that can only be experienced in Karuizawa to your heart's content. All strawberry houses are grown in clean elevated cultivation, making picking easy. It is located in Firefly Village, which has a great view and is surrounded by the majestic Mt. Asama, about 15 minutes by car from Karuizawa Station. ▼Introduction of the main target varieties▼・Kaorino: In the cold climate of Karuizawa, the strawberries ripen slowly and fully, so they are enveloped in a vanilla-like scent, as if you were drinking strawberry juice. ・Yotsuboshi: Our Yotsuboshi not only has a rich flavor with an excellent triplet of sweetness, sourness, and aroma, but also grows into a very neat and beautiful fruit.・Yayoihime: At its peak, it is the sweetest of all the varieties, and the size of the berries is also enjoyable. *Shinku no Meisuzu has been excluded from the Premium Course because it was often unavailable due to growing conditions.

There are few local foods that are as popular as this one, and for a long time, "oneri for breakfast, barley rice for lunch, and pumpkin hoto for dinner" seemed to have been the standard for daily life in the rural areas of Koshu. In 2007, it was selected as one of the "100 Best Local Dishes of Rural Areas" organized by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, which are known in farming, mountain and fishing villages all over Japan and are widely supported by the people. Unlike regular noodles, hoto noodles do not need to be left to rest. Therefore, you will make the noodles by hand from the powder state. It will be quite a voluminous meal, so please come hungry. We also offer a dyeing experience where you can experience the traditional Japanese dyeing technique using natural materials, which can be used as a set with the hoto experience. In the dyeing experience, we will carefully explain each step, so those who are new to dyeing and those who come with children can participate with peace of mind. The natural feel of natural materials and the fact that you make it with your own hands will create a one-of-a-kind product that no one else can imitate. ◆Recommended for◆Those who want to try famous Yamanashi Prefecture dishesThose who want to make local Yamanashi Prefecture dishesThose looking for activities at Lake Yamanaka or Lake KawaguchiThose who want to experience cooking with their childrenThose looking for an experience programThose who are having trouble sightseeing on rainy daysThose looking for sightseeing in English*Due to the nature of our reservation system, all reservations are by request, but in most cases we can accept reservations at the time you wish.

台風状況などで行程を決めかねる部分があったのですが、柔軟に対応いただけたおかげで不安が薄れました。 ほうとう作り体験では、要所要所でうまくフォローいただけたおかげで無事美味しくいただけました。 とり天を子供用にカットしたくてハサミをお借りできたり、食べきれなかった分を自己責任ですが持ち帰る容器をいただけたりしたので、とても助かりました。 0.5だけ減らしたのは、1組だけで体験していたからか?、体験中の写真を撮影して貰えていた参加者もいたようだったので、手が粉で汚れていて自分では撮れなかった写真が平等に撮っていただけたらより嬉しかったという点と、 キャンセル料の発生が宿や他アクティビティより断トツ早くて、台風発生で安全面を考慮し旅行の催行を迷った際の一番のネックだった(これだけキャンセル料がかかるので)点が少し残念だったからなのですが、総じてとても楽しめました。ありがとうございました!

It is an unusual type of udon that is characterized by its hard and chewy noodles and toppings such as horse meat and cabbage. It has also been selected as one of the ``Top 100 Local Dishes from Rural Areas, Mountains, and Fishing Villages,'' selected from among the local flavors of each region. Yoshida's udon noodles are characterized by thick and chewy noodles, toppings made with horse meat and cabbage, and a soup made with miso and soy sauce. This is the only place in Japan where you can eat it with a spiciness called suridane. Yoshida's udon was originally a home-cooked dish, so each restaurant has its own characteristics. For example, some restaurants use beef or horse meat, and the sides vary in hardness and length. Although there are general rules, there are no clear rules, so the freedom of making them may also be a characteristic of Yoshida's udon. In this plan, customers will make udon noodles from powder. Enjoy with hot soup and toppings such as cabbage, fried tofu, and wakame. The content is quite extensive, so please come hungry. Our store also offers a dyeing experience where you can experience traditional Japanese dyeing techniques using natural materials, which can be used as a set with the hotou experience.
