We have been making chopsticks for 13 years. We have made chopsticks with over 13,000 people so far.

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!

A plan to support active people who want to make the most of their short break! This is a mini-experience tour where you can ride a mountain bike through a real forest during a light running time before breakfast. It takes less than an hour from meeting to disbanding (※It may vary slightly depending on the environment on the day, but please assume it will take about 45 to 50 minutes). There is no climbing, only descending, so even those who are not physically fit can feel at ease! It is possible to experience mountain biking easily. If you can ride a bike and have a little courage, you can participate empty-handed (all rental equipment is included in the price) (Note) You can easily participate empty-handed, but since you will be riding a mountain bike through real nature, your clothes and shoes may get a little dirty depending on the weather and other conditions, so it is better to be wild and not worry about that, or bring a change of clothes.

In keeping with the delicate changes of the four seasons in Japan, there are materials and patterns that can only be worn for a limited period of time.
