The journey from Tokyo to Izu Kogen by the Izu Odori train takes approximately two hours. The park provides a free shuttle service from Izu Kogen Station to the camp, a convenient 10-minute drive. Near Izu Kogen Station, there is a 3-kilometer-long cherry blossom-lined avenue (Izu Kogen Sakura Namiki), with about 600 cherry trees, including Daikanzakura and Somei Yoshino, forming a cherry blossom tunnel from late March to early April each year, welcoming the most magnificent season of the year. The Izu Peninsula has many famous cherry blossom viewing spots. "Sakura no Sato," at the foot of Mount Omuro, has been selected as one of the "100 Best Cherry Blossom Spots in Japan," and is only a 2-3 minute drive (about a 20-minute walk) from the camp. Its unique feature is its long blooming period of up to 8 months. The approximately 4-hectare park features about 1,500 cherry trees of 40 different varieties. Due to the diverse cherry blossom species, different varieties bloom in succession, with the blooming period lasting from mid-September to mid-May of the following year. In addition, the famous Izu Kawazu cherry blossom is the earliest blooming cherry blossom variety in Japan, blooming successively from February to early March each year. There are as many as 8,000 blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms planted in Kawazu Town. Since there are also many tourists from all over Japan during the cherry blossom viewing season, it is recommended to arrange accommodation in the Izu Peninsula to avoid traffic jams and make reservations in advance to avoid disappointment!

FAQ
Considering the distances and richness of attractions on the Izu Peninsula, a two-day, one-night trip is recommended for a more thorough and comfortable experience of the natural scenery of Jogasaki Coast, the historical culture of Shuzenji Onsen, and the unique atmosphere of Shimoda port town. This allows you to savor the specialties of each place without rushing and enjoy a leisurely vacation. For instance, private group tours are typically planned for two days to ensure you can fully explore these representative spots.
The Izu Peninsula is charming throughout the year. In spring, besides the Kawazu Cherry Blossoms (around February to early March), the azaleas on Mount Omuro bloom from late April to early May on the Izu Plateau. Summer (June-August) is ideal for enjoying swimming or marine activities in the Shimoda area. In autumn (September-November), the beautiful autumn foliage around Shuzenji Onsen is not to be missed, offering a picturesque scene of ancient temples intertwined with red leaves. During winter (December-January), on clear days, you can get a distant view of Mt. Fuji and experience the winter charm of other hot spring towns.
Kanon Forest Resort offers a glamping experience where you don't need to prepare any equipment. You can stay in comfortable tents surrounded by forests, equipped with comprehensive facilities to ensure a quality stay. Each tent also comes with a private terrace, perfect for sharing relaxing moments with family and friends. During specific seasons (like the Kawazu Cherry Blossom season), limited-time events are held, such as campfire BBQ dinners and New Year's mochi pounding experiences, adding to the travel fun. A welcome drink (1 bottle per tent) is also provided.
For Izu private group tours departing from Tokyo to Shuzenji Onsen and other attractions, transportation will be provided by a dedicated private vehicle for pick-up and drop-off. This means you won't have to worry about complicated public transportation transfers or carrying luggage. You can depart easily from a designated location in Tokyo, enjoying exclusive service without sharing groups or vehicles. The itinerary pace can also be flexibly adjusted according to your preferences, making your journey more comfortable and allowing you to savor the slow-paced Izu vacation.
In the Shimoda area and Jogasaki Coast on the Izu Peninsula, besides the dedicated vehicle transfers included in the itinerary, there are some local transportation options for short-distance travel. For instance, in Shimoda city, you can choose to walk or take local loop buses to explore main attractions like Perry Road. Around Jogasaki Coast, bus services are available to connect to various tourist spots. While there isn't a subway system like in large cities, the bus routes connect major scenic areas, providing a degree of convenience for sightseeing.
In addition to enjoying the historic hot springs of Shuzenji Onsen, the surrounding bamboo grove is a great place for a walk, full of Zen tranquility. You can visit Shuzenji Temple to experience the solemn atmosphere of the ancient temple. The area also has many traditional Japanese confectionery shops and soba noodle restaurants, where tasting local cuisine is also a cultural experience. Furthermore, strolling along the Katsura River and admiring the Japanese gardens and traditional architecture along the way allows for a deep immersion into Izu's unique hot spring culture and serenity.
Jogasaki Coast is famous for its magnificent volcanic rock coastline. Near the Kadowaki Suspension Bridge, besides experiencing the thrill of walking across the bridge, you can also stroll along the approximately 9-kilometer Jogasaki Natural Study Path to admire unique lava formations, sea caves, and strange rock formations. Along the way, you can overlook the blue ocean of the Pacific and feel the sea breeze. During spring and summer, the surrounding wildflowers also bloom, adding color to the scenery and allowing you to appreciate the natural beauty of Izu.
In the Shimoda area, you can stroll along Perry Road to experience the historical atmosphere, with its old-fashioned buildings, willow trees, and small bridges. This area also houses the Shimoda Museum of History to learn about Japan's opening to foreign trade. Additionally, the Nesugata-yama Ropeway is a recommended attraction; you can take the cable car to the summit for a panoramic view of Shimoda Port and the stunning sea views of the Izu Seven Islands. The seafood restaurants by the harbor are also a great choice for savoring fresh catches and experiencing the port town's charm.
