The Tama Camp

The Tama Area outdoors to the west of Tokyo is not only highly attractive to outdoor enthusiasts, but also to amateur campers and families as well.

With easy access to the Tama Area via a one-hour train ride from the center of Tokyo and a resurgence in the camping scene in recent years, the merits of Tokyo campsites are once again being recognized.

On the weekends, campers can be seen in almost every station and the mountains heading to campsites.

Of course, this heightened degree of attention is largely due to the popularity of the facilities, such as glamping sites made to resemble tropical luxury resorts, campsites near train stations favored by families, and even campgrounds within the valleys endorsing “sauna camps.”

Here, we will introduce camping facilities that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways along with some recommended places to stop by.

WOODLAND BOTHY

  • TAMA’s Activity
  • Camping

Woodland Bothy means “The little hut in the woods”, which is a place where we go to get relief from the miscellaneous stresses of everyday life. Climbing the mountain for about 30 minutes, an unexplored region appeared at last. Having the special experience where the master chef serves a special meal by himself, is provided to only one group per day. First to see is a glamping auberge (woodland inn), and then in addition can be found traditional Japanese style housing facilities and camping sites (both are limited to one group per day). Here you can refresh your mind and body with clean air and delicious food surrounded by quiet nature that you cannot imagine in Tokyo.
