Amariyama Green Lodge, located partway up Mt. Amari in Nirasaki City, Yamanashi Prefecture, is a "campsite above the clouds" where visitors can enjoy cool highland breezes and a sky full of stars.

Even in summer, a refreshing breeze blows through the site, and on clear days visitors can take in views of Mt. Fuji and the Kofu Basin, with a sky full of stars appearing at night. Surrounded by nature, the quiet setting is ideal for anyone looking to step away from the busyness of daily life and unwind.

The campsite offers powered auto sites where cars can be parked right next to the tent (7 sites in total), as well as free sites that let visitors feel closer to nature (up to 8 groups). A lodge is also available on-site, so everyone from camping beginners to seasoned outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy the highland air in their own style.

Beginner-Friendly: Easy Outdoor Fun Without Bringing Your Own Gear

The lodge is also well-suited to visitors who want to try camping but find it daunting to gather all the gear, or who simply want to enjoy a day-trip barbecue. A range of rental items is available, including tents, tarps, chairs, tables, grills, and even hammock sets. Visitors can bring in food from restaurants and takeout shops in the city, along with local vegetables, for a special meal surrounded by nature.
