Yamanashi is home to a wealth of sightseeing spots where you can enjoy magnificent natural scenery, including Japan's tallest mountain, Mt. Fuji, Fuji Five Lakes, and Lake Kawaguchi.This area is perfect for couples who want to forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life and spend a relaxing time in nature, or for couples who want to enjoy a trip where they can fully enjoy nature, such as camping or being outdoors.It is located in a location that is easily accessible from central Tokyo, so it is also recommended for busy working couples who want to enjoy a weekend trip!
In Yamanashi, there are an increasing number of accommodations where you can spend a luxurious time, such as luxury hotels and inns, open-air baths, and luxurious meals and services.This area is recommended for people who are planning a couple trip for a birthday or anniversary.
If you are planning a couple's trip to Yamanashi Prefecture to enjoy the natural environment to the fullest, camping and outdoor activity facilities are an option.However, full-fledged camping may seem like a high hurdle for outdoor beginners.Camping or staying in an outdoor environment requires a lot of equipment, which can be difficult to prepare, carry, and set up, and the inconvenience of not having a toilet or bath, which can make a couple's trip feel uneasy.For couples who want to easily enjoy nature in a well-equipped environment, we recommend using glamping facilities.
"Glamping" refers to gorgeous and glamorous camping.The unique rooms, such as dome-shaped tents and cottages, are fully equipped with air conditioning and heating, are fully stocked with amenities, and are equipped with facilities such as separate toilets and showers for a comfortable stay outdoors.There are many rooms with cute and stylish interiors, so it's perfect for couples!I'm glad that many of the facilities are located in locations that are rich in nature and yet are easily accessible from the city center by car or train.
Glamping facilities are also recommended for people who are planning a couple's trip but aren't sure where to go.For example, at a glamping facility, you can enjoy the following ways:
・Enjoy meals such as BBQ made with luxurious ingredients
・There are plenty of outdoor activities that you can easily enjoy, such as bonfires and camping food cooking.
・Depending on the facility, you can enjoy pools, hot springs, saunas, etc.
・Some facilities have bars where you can relax and enjoy drinks, so you can spend some adult time.
You can experience an extraordinary feeling, and there are many ways to enjoy it only at a glamping facility!Not only can you spend some relaxing time with just the two of you in a private space, but our facilities, which have large dome tents and villa-type rooms that can be used by a large number of people, can also be used for double dates or group trips.
Next, we will introduce six glamping facilities in Yamanashi Prefecture that are recommended for couples traveling.
