Tips for getting the most out of your Sounkyo camping experience

There are a few things to keep in mind to make your stay at Sounkyo Auto Campground more enjoyable. First of all, it is important to prepare according to the season. Mornings and evenings are particularly cold in autumn and winter, so be sure to take precautions against the cold. We recommend bringing a high-quality sleeping bag and warm clothes to ensure a comfortable sleep. There are also restaurants and markets around the campground where you can enjoy local ingredients. For example, one of the highlights is buying fresh vegetables and seafood from Kamikawa Town and enjoying a barbecue at the campground. Try cooking with venison and wild vegetables, which are specialties of the Sounkyo area. Tasting the local flavors will make your travel memories even richer. Don't miss stargazing at night at the campground. The countless stars that cannot be seen in urban areas will color the night sky, making your quiet night time special. If you prepare a star chart in advance, you can enjoy it with your family and friends.
