    Japan (Kanto) > Otsuki > An Informal Hang on July 1-2

    Hello fellow hangers living around the Kanto region..

    Tiger3 and I have planned a hang in Otsuki and I wanted to get the word out.

    Location: 月尾根自然の森 (I think its called "Tsukione no shizen no mori", Moon Ridge Natural Forrest)
    〒409-0506 Yamanashi-ken, Ōtsuki-shi, Yanagawamachi Tachino, 山梨県大月市梁川町立野106
    Date: July 1-2 (Sat/Sun)
    Campsite registration is handled by phone -- 0554-26-2746 (I can try to assist, let me know)
    Cost: ¥500 per person / there is parking available for an additional ¥500 yen.

    This is the same place that Hammock For Hikers held their event: http://thetrailsmag.com/archives/7921

    How to get there by train: Take JR Chuo line from Takao Station towards Otsuki. Depart from Yanagawa Station (染川駅) take the road south past the bridge continue walking 10 minutes.

    There is also nice trail up Mt. Kuratake (990M) nearby: https://www.yamareco.com/modules/yam...o.php?ptid=318

    Thanks for the invite.
    Sadly I can't make it as I have a family birthday weekend planned.

    Please let me know when you plan the next one.

    I started a facebook group "Hammock Camping Japan" if you want to network and share ideas and locations for hangs.

    Clarification of cost: ¥500 per space (my misunderstanding); ¥500 yen per person; ¥500 for optional parking. If one person w/ car, the total is ¥1,500.

    I just confirmed with the caretaker that BBQ is allowed. They rent a set with charcoal for ¥2,000 or sell just the charcoal.

    I'll bring my small portable BBQ. Since its close to the 4th o' July, I'm thinking of bringing Chili cheese dog for the group for lunch.

    There is no set check in / check out but I'll plan to be at the station by 11am.
