Murakami Kambayashi Pool

Flow of the course

About this spot

Murakami Kambayashi Pool is a summer-only outdoor pool at Murakami City's Kambayashi General Gymnasium. It typically opens from late July to late August, operating in two sessions: 10:00-12:00 and 13:00-15:30. Admission is 200 yen, free for high school students and younger who live in the city. It's a community-rooted pool where local children come during summer vacation. Surrounded by a quiet setting of farmland and pine groves, it lacks the crowding of a large leisure pool, making it appealing for swimming freely and comfortably.

Tips

Since operation is split into a morning and afternoon session, if you plan to use the afternoon session, arrive in time for the 1pm start. The opening period and hours vary by year, so check with Murakami City's information before heading out. Since it's free for high school students and younger who live in the city, having proof of residency handy makes the process smoother. Assume there is no shop, and bring your own drinks and towels.

Best time to visit

Timing your arrival with the 1pm start of the afternoon session lets you use the full 2 hours and 30 minutes
