Ashigara Forest Park Maruta no Mori (足柄森林公園 丸太の森)

Flow of the course

About this spot

A natural park of approximately 35 hectares where the entire forest becomes a playground. It features wooden log obstacle courses, open spaces, and walking paths along a stream where you can move your body freely under the dappled forest light. The park also has relocated thatched-roof farmhouses, allowing you to enjoy both forest play and satoyama (foothill village) scenery all in one place.

Tips

Assume the obstacle course will get you dirty and bring a change of clothes. Don't forget insect repellent during summer. The terrain is uneven, so a carrier is better than a stroller.

Best time to visit

Allow 1.5 hours; weekday afternoons offer relaxed playtime
