掲載日:2021.12.18
Introducing a greedy model course where you can enjoy special experiences that you cannot experience in everyday life, such as the spectacular view from GozaishoRopeway, the French-born treetop experience ``Forest Adventure'', and horseback riding while admiring the scenery of the four seasons!
This is a course for families and groups that not only children but also adults can enjoy in Suzuka Quasi-National Park, which is easily accessible from the Kansai and Chukyo areas.
What is Suzuka Quasi-National Park?
The Suzuka Mountains that tower over the western part of the park are geologically different, with the northern part being a karst topography formed by eroding limestone, and the southeastern part being granite, so you can enjoy a variety of activities in addition to the varied landscape.
The mountains called the Suzuka Seven Mountains within the mountain range are popular spots for trekking and climbing, and in winter, the area transforms into a silver world due to the abundant snowfall. Furthermore, the mountains give rise to many mountain streams, and there are many campgrounds located along these streams.
Also, don't miss the hot springs, which have a history of 1300 years. Yunoyama Onsen, also known as ``deer bath'' because of the legend that deer healed their wounds, is a famous hot spring perfect for relieving daily fatigue and stress.
It is an area with convenient transportation and rich nature, so it is recommended for a short weekend trip.

① Enjoy the spectacular scenery of each season! 12 minute aerial walk “GozaishoRopeway ”♪
Mt.Gozaisho, located on the border of Mie and Shiga prefectures, is a famous peak at an altitude of 1212m located in Suzuka Quasi-National Park!
GozaishoRopeway is where you can enjoy a panoramic aerial view of this mountain, which is also known as the ``Famous Mountain of 100 Flowers'' due to its many rare plants and flowers.
Spring begins when the red palm trees are in full bloom, and summer arrives when you can feel the cool depth of green. In autumn, it is colored with beautiful autumn leaves, and in winter, it becomes a world of white and silver.
It's no wonder that it's called ``a mountain that you should visit again and again'' as it has something to see in every season.
However, it's not just the plants and flowers that are worth seeing.
Rocks created by nature, such as Takami Rock and Ebisu Rock, which are located right next to Japan's tallest white iron tower, and Jizo Rock, which is a power spot because it never falls (can only be seen on climbing routes). Amazing huge rocks and strangely shaped rocks can be seen here and there.
Furthermore, if the weather is good, you can see Ise Bay and even the city of Nagoya, so let's enjoy this perfect location ♪
After 12 minutes of walking in the air while admiring the spectacular view, we arrived at Gozaisho Sanjo Park.
When you think of Gozaisho, you get a strong impression of the ropeway, but what exactly is there at Gozaisho Sanjo Park?
② You might even be able to see Mt. Fuji! ? Stroll through Gozaisho Sanjo Park, which has five observation decks.
In fact, there are many things to see at Gozaisho Sanjo Park!
There are five observation decks and observatories in total, including the spectacular open view of Fujimi-iwa Observation Deck, where you can see Mt. Fuji, and Bokodai, where you can see Lake Biwa. You might be able to meet a certain "Japanese serow"! ?
You can enjoy different scenery not only in the four seasons but also in each location, so it's perfect for hiking.
It's truly amazing to be able to travel to such a different world in just 12 minutes!
There is also a children's sledding slope, so don't worry if you are bringing small children. It would be nice to go to see the ``Tunnel of Rime Trees'' woven by Mother Nature and the ``Ice Falls'', which are frozen waterfalls.
Not only can you enjoy the four seasons at Mt.Gozaisho, but there are also many different ways to enjoy it. If you want to experience the nature of this area firsthand, this is the spot you should visit first!
③ Enjoy Gozaisho specialties at “Observation Restaurant Nature” while admiring the spectacular view!
Enjoy the abundant natural scenery at Gozaisho Sanjo Park♪
But one last push. Before getting on the gondola on your way home, let's stop by the "Natural View Restaurant"!
From the glass-walled interior, you can see the Suzuka mountains up close, and Ise Bay in the distance. It's such a luxury to be able to see such a view while eating!
The thick, chewy noodles are made with Ise-Udon, and the noodles cling to the curry well.
The topping is braised pork full of collagen! It's a hearty menu that will make you happy even after a lot of walking or skiing♪
After enjoying being “above the sky” and “above the mountain” at Mt.Gozaisho and having a full stomach, let’s go “above the tree”.
④ Dynamic treetop experience at the French-born “Forest Adventure Yunoyama”!
Forest Adventure Yunoyama, a French-born outdoor park that coexists with nature, is a facility that utilizes forests as they are.
Since we haven't modified it any more than necessary, there is less impact on the environment, and since it's a completely different facility in a different forest, you can truly take on the challenge of having a treetop experience that can only be found here.
They are divided by difficulty level and safety system, so choose the one that suits you.
On the "Adventure Course" we chose this time, we experienced things like the 100m long "Zip Slide" and the "Tarzan Swing" where you jump from a height of about 10m! The thrill and exhilaration that goes beyond athletics will melt away your daily stress.
On the tree, you have to make your own decisions and proceed while ensuring safety, so everyone here is very serious.
[Adults become children, and children become adults. ] True to the concept, I was able to enjoy an exciting time that felt like I was a child again in the midst of nature!
⑤ Enjoy the beauty of nature from horseback! "Yunoyama Horse Riding Club" is safe even on rainy days♪
Yunoyama Horse Riding Club is a horse riding club surrounded by nature at the foot of Mt.Gozaisho.
It has one of the largest indoor equestrian fields in the Chubu area, so you can enjoy it safely even on bad weather!
Of course, there are beautiful natural scenery in every season, but seeing the scenery from a slightly higher perspective while swaying on the back of a horse will give you a completely different impression than usual.
After letting the horse ride on my back for an hour, I felt like I had hit it off with the horse. I headed to my accommodation for the day, suppressing the feeling of being unable to leave.
⑥ Spend a relaxing time at the inn "Saikoyo" where you can enjoy Yunoyama Onsen in a great location.
Today, let's take a rest at the historic inn "Saikoyo" where Emperor Showa once stayed.
As soon as we entered the lobby, we were immediately greeted by the view of Gozaisho's stunning autumn leaves!
Yunoyama Onsen, which has a long history dating back 1,300 years, is also known as ``Kanoyu'' because of the legend that deer healed their wounds, and is characterized by its soft hot water. It is famous as the "beauty bath" as it has beautifying effects.
Relax and relax from the day's fatigue in an open-air bath surrounded by the vast natural beauty of trees and clear streams. The snowy bath is also special in winter!
Since the inn is located halfway up the mountain, the night view from the rooftop is also amazing!
The sparkling lights of the city seen over the mountains are a fantastic sight that will make you forget time. Enjoy a romantic evening to your heart's content.
Another feature of this inn is that it offers a wide range of services for long-term stays such as workcations. By collaborating with local restaurants, we can separate meals and nights, offer a free drink system during your stay, and even provide separate rooms for relaxing and working!

⑦ Take a stroll at “Bobility” where you can feel the wind on your skin!
Why not try using ``Kobability'' as a means of transportation?
*“Komobability” is a new style of travel proposed by KomonoTown Tourism Association.
By moving around town using electrically assisted bicycles, motorcycles, and kickboards that are available for rent at various locations in KomonoTown, you can experience the wind, temperature, smells, and nature of KomonoTown, which you could not notice from the car window. The appeal is that you can. It's an EV bike that doesn't emit exhaust gas, so it's also environmentally friendly.
Not only have I visited Mt.Gozaisho, Yunoyama Onsen, and experienced treetop riding and horseback riding, but I have also had a pottery experience at Kamoshika Dougu Shop, admiring the cosmos fields that have become an annual tradition, and a combination of healing and food. You can spend a relaxing time at the resort "Aquaignis" or just stop by a shop that catches your eye...♪
Enjoy your own Komono trip while looking at the roadmap created by KomonoTown Tourism Association!
⑧Day camp at “AogawakyoCampingPark”, an outdoor field surrounded by blue and green♪
"AogawakyoCampingPark" is located in a place surrounded by the Suzuka Mountains and the clear stream "Aokawa", and is a campsite recommended for those who want to spend a relaxing time in nature.
The entire facility is thoroughly cleaned, so the water area is very clean, and there is a wide range of rental equipment, so even beginners can rest assured.
What's more, it can be used throughout the year, making it a campsite that you can enjoy anytime, with anyone, and in any style!
The location has a clear stream flowing right in front of you, and there's also an artificial stream where even small children can play safely, so it's great that you can keep an eye on your children while you're on the site.
There is also a fire place, so you can enjoy camping meals and bonfires over an open fire ♪
A plain spreads out around the summit of Mt. Ryugatake, and the path that seems to go on forever is very impressive. In autumn, many mountain climbers come to see the red sheep (red foliage of the white palm tree)!

⑨Refresh yourself from the fatigue of your travels at the free-flowing alkaline hot spring “ageki Onsen”
But you don't want to leave your fatigue tomorrow.
In such a case, be sure to visit ageki Onsen, which is right near the campsite!
This facility, whose theme is "promoting health," is characterized by its alkaline hot springs. Bathing is said to have the effect of ``recovering from fatigue,'' so please take your time and relax.
