What we’re about

Looking for a refreshing break from Tokyo?
Tokyo is a convenient, exciting city with lots to do — but sometimes, you just need to get out for some fresh air, beautiful nature, and real local culture and food.
If you feel that way, this Meetup group is for you!

***

We’ve been organizing day trips and nature events since April 2018.
Our events are great for those who want to:
・Take easy day trips to nature spots with good access from Tokyo
・Get active outdoors with hiking and fresh air
・Relax and recharge in peaceful, green environments
・Try fun and unique activities you don’t usually do
・Learn about Japanese culture and countryside life
・Explore Japan’s food culture and enjoy delicious meals
・Discover rural areas off the beaten path
・Get your hands in the soil and experience organic farming
・Meet people who also love nature, hiking, and slow living
If this sounds like you, feel free to join our group and sign up for an event that interests you!
We’re always happy to welcome new members and look forward to meeting you 😊
