About a 50-minute drive from the Tokyo metropolitan area, the adventure resort Sagamiko Mori Mori (さがみ湖MORI MORI) in Sagamihara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, is surrounded by lush forest. On Saturday, November 14, 2026, it is opening "Pao Park" (ぱおパーク), an indoor cube-style net athletic that can be enjoyed in rain, heat, or cold, inside the entrance shop building.
Pao Park is a large cube-style net athletic built from 2-meter-square cubes enclosed in netting, with a maximum height of 6.3 meters. Its elephant-motif exterior, created to make full use of the entrance shop building's ceiling height, is set to become a new landmark that greets visitors.
Because the whole structure is enclosed in netting, children can climb to the upper levels with peace of mind and then slide down all at once on a slide modeled on an elephant's trunk. As it is a fully indoor facility, children can move around freely regardless of the season or the weather. Families can use it as a break between outdoor play or as a place to play on a day with poor weather.
Sagamiko Mori Mori also has a wide variety of other athletics, and the entrance shop building that houses Pao Park serves as a base for play within the park. To mark the opening, an "Opening Commemorative Rally," in which participants collect stickers by visiting each athletic, will run at the same time.
