At the foot of Mt. Daisen, you’ll find campgrounds scattered about, each with its own character. From folks who want to show up empty-handed and easygoing, to those who want to gaze at the stars from the highlands. Here we compare three of the most well-known ones.
How to choose
- Empty-handed factor — Do you bring your own gear, or travel light with rentals and cabins?
- Facilities — Hot springs, showers, power hookups, a shop, and so on
- Location and elevation — Highland views, or the calm of the woods
- Purpose — A family outing, or serious camping
