**TRIP CONFIRMED!** **(JUST 2 SLOTS LEFT FOR SPECIAL PROMO PRICE?** 🍁 Discover the Untamed Beauty of Japan’s Sakura Cherry-Blossom in this Breathtaking 9-Day Hiking & Road Trip Adventure! 🚗 Hey members, you may have been to Japan many times but we bet many of you have yet to go 'off-the-beaten' track away from the popular touristy spots to **EXPLORE & ENJOY** the **REAL JAPAN** \- it's immense beauty\, colorful culture and hidden gems that few know of\. Come, join us on this breathtaking adventure as we take you to uncover Japan’s hidden gems, beautiful mountains, tranquil lakes and crimson forests during the early sakura season which comes slightly earlier in the mountains. **Note:** This is not your typical tour — it’s an hiking cum road-trip adventure designed for hikers, nature-lovers, photographers and explorers who crave the freedom to roam beyond the boring tourist trail that few know of. Our journey begins in Tokyo before we board the train to **Odawara**, where the real adventure starts. From here, we’ll hit the road to explore the dramatic coastlines of the **Izu Peninsula**, **tranquil mirror lakes** and **waterfalls**, and the **beautiful forests** of the **Amagi Mountains.** We’ll soak in **rejuvenating onsen hot springs,** visit **charming countryside towns**, and hike through the breathtaking landscapes of **Shosenkyo Gorge** and the cherry-blossom trees/ forests and **picturesque** **5 Lakes** surrounding **majestic Mt Fuji**. But that’s not all — we’ll also visit **vineyards, winery**, **local fruit farms**, indulge in seasonal harvests, and experience authentic Japanese cuisine along the way. Expect handmade soba, melt-in-your-mouth sashimi, and hidden izakayas only locals know. Each day offers something different: **misty mountain trails, lakeside sunsets, volcanic valleys, coastal viewpoints,** and **soul-soothing soaks** in traditional hot-spring onsens. To end our journey with a bang, we return to Tokyo and dive into the neon-lit buzz of **Shinjuku** — a perfect contrast to the serenity we’ve just experienced. This is your chance to explore Japan’s beauty off from the usual touristy sights during the cherry-blossom season - the way few ever do and knew — with the breeze in your hair, a smile, a handphone/ camera in hand, and new friends by your side. We're sure that **90%** of these places we're showing you will be new or unknown to you even though you may have been to Japan several times before. Cos these hidden gems, amazing hiking trails, farms, small villages & scenic places are curated from my 40+ years of adventures there in Japan. They are mostly off-the-beaten track, may not be found in Google maps and not easily accessible without your own private vehicle and good topo navigation skills. So ... are you game for adventure to enjoy autumn in picturesque Japan and discover new hidden trails with us? \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* **TRIP HIGHLIGHTS:** **1) IZU PENINSULA** *A hidden gem south of Tokyo, the Izu Peninsula offers a stunning blend of coastal cliffs, serene waterfalls, and forested mountains ablaze with sakura colours. From the scenic Kawazu Seven Waterfalls to the vibrant woods & forests of Shuzenji, Izu is perfect for hikers and onsen lovers alike. Explore charming hot spring towns, dramatic sea caves in Dogashima, and mountain trails in the Amagi Highlands — all while tasting fresh seafood and soaking in ocean-view baths.* **2) HAKONE** *Hakone is a beloved getaway known for its steaming hot springs, volcanic landscapes, and iconic views of Mt. Fuji. Visitors can hike quiet forest trails, cruise across the misty waters of Lake Ashi, and stroll down cedar-lined paths of the old Tokaido Road. The Hakone Open-Air Museum adds an artistic twist to nature, while hidden onsens and traditional inns provide the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. In spring, the surrounding hills burst into brilliant pink and red, creating picture-perfect scenes.* **3) MT. FUJI Five Lakes Region** *Surrounding Japan’s most iconic mountain, the Fuji Five Lakes area is a paradise for nature lovers and photographers. Lakes Kawaguchi, Yamanaka, Saiko, Shoji, and Motosu offer mirror-like reflections of Mt. Fuji, especially stunning in the lovely spring flower season. The area is dotted with hiking trails, lava caves, flower parks, and traditional villages. It’s also the perfect place to catch sunrise over Fuji or unwind in a lakeside onsen with unforgettable views.* **4) YAMANASHI** **(incl. Shosenkyo Gorge)** *Yamanashi is home to some of Japan’s most spectacular mountain scenery. **Shosenkyo Gorge** is a must-see, with towering cliffs, riverside trails, and vibrant maple forests. Beyond the gorge, enjoy **fruit-picking** at local orchards, **wine-tasting** in Japan’s premier wine region, and panoramic views from ropeways and scenic plateaus. The region combines mountain beauty with cultural charm and is the perfect inland contrast to the coastal Izu.* Yes, there's so much to explore beyond the popular touristy places of Tokyo, Osaka & Kyoto. Cos the real beauty lies beyond - at the countryside, lakes, farms, waterfalls, cedar and oak forests, pilgrimage shrines, secret torii-gates, caves, vineyards & more! **“Chasing Japan's Glory in Spring: A Scenic Adventure Through Japan’s Hidden Gems”** **EVENT DETAILS:** \*\* PICTUREQUE IZU PENINSULA/ SPECTACULAR HAKONE/ BREATHTAKING YAMANASHI - JAPAN'S HIDDEN PARADISE! \*\* **Max Group Size: 12 pax** *(\*Priority Slots will be given to Drivers first)* **Date: 13 Mar.** (Fri night) to **21 Mar** (Sat) 2026 - (\*Just 5 days leave).

***Okay, call me crazy but you have got to try their chip n dip!*** Club 185 is a true hidden gem in German Village! Seriously, old school, good comfort food and drink. We will try to gather in spaces near the windows. While we'll share Chip n Dip, you'll want to order a sandwich, too. **Where the Chip Began (1817)** Potato chips can be traced back to an English chef, William Kitchiner, who includes ‘crisps’ in his bestselling cookbook, “The Cook’s Oracle.” **Chip and Dip Popularity** The popularity of chip and dip skyrockets at the end of World War II with new entertainment fads and the introduction of Lipton’s new advertising campaign for their famous French Onion Dip. (Club 185 doesn't openly admit it, but I'm pretty sure that's their dip recipe!) **[Club 185](http://club185.com/)**—a true neighborhood bar serving since 1954, when it was known as a local 'speak-easy'. Located in German Village, Club 185 features a menu of quality casual comfort food and full bar. From politicians to lawyers, hardhats to hipsters—all find Club 185 the perfect place to tame their hunger and quench their thirst! **PARKING**: I know, brick street parallel parking can be a pain. Two other choices, metered parking along Livingston heading towards Children's Hospital or across the street in the large church lot (park in spaces farthest away from the church entrance doors, closer to the street). **PRE-EVENT**: **HAPPY HOUR (3-5pm)**: Italian drinks and bites at [Cento's happy hour](https://centogermanvillage.com/menus/), nearby.

**Tickets are on sale now**

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
