Product Info

Choshi Falls
In the Yunosawa settlement of Fujisato Town, there is the 18-meter-high 'Choshi Falls'.
The waterfall was named 'Choshi' (sake decanter) because the shape of the basin resembles a sake decanter, and the way the water falls into it looks like pouring sake. It is a healing spot that is easy to visit but feels like a hidden gem.
Wild Vegetable Picking
You can experience picking wild vegetables like 'mizu' in the foothills near Choshi Falls. You can rest assured as you will be guided by a local expert.
Wild Vegetable Cooking Experience
Prepare the wild vegetables you picked yourself. For 'mizu': peel them and put them in boiling water to turn them a beautiful green. Remove them immediately and toss with salted kelp to finish.
Gakko-Chakko
Enjoy your freshly prepared wild vegetable dishes around a bonfire. You can also enjoy tea brewed with Shirakami spring water. Chatting with locals while watching the flickering flames is a truly healing time. Be sure to ask them about life in this area. *In summer, the bonfire experience can be changed to a cooling experience by the riverside.
