Fun activities to liven up your camping trip: Recreation games (71–80)
bass fishing
If there’s a pond, river, or lake nearby, how about trying bass fishing? You use lures, which are bait made of plastic.
Consider the season, weather, and water temperature to figure out where the fish might be hiding.
It’s a very popular activity as a sport, too.
bungee jump
If you want to test your courage and guts, how about bungee jumping? You can experience a 100-meter free fall right here in Japan.
It sounds tough even if you’re not afraid of heights, doesn’t it? At a dizzying height, are you ready to take that first step?
Birdwatching
If you’ve got enough time to stay overnight in the mountains, birdwatching is also recommended.
You can set up a feeding spot with any fruit you have on hand, or simply stay quiet in a good environment and enjoy wild birds coming to you.
Don’t forget your binoculars when you go birdwatching!
Paraglider
Paragliding is an activity that lets you freely soar through the sky.
The exhilaration will undoubtedly become a lifelong memory.
There are facilities across the country where you can try it, so be sure to look them up.
Just don’t forget to check the weather before you go.
Rafting
Rafting is an activity where you ride a rubber boat down a raging river.
You can experience roller-coaster-like thrills out in nature.
It’s especially recommended during the peak summer heat, because no matter what you do, you’re going to get wet.
Be sure to try it with your family!
