Hottai Enchi Campground
Nestled in the abundant nature of Mt. Chokai, Hoppotai Enchi Campsite offers an unparalleled setting right before the majestic Hoppotai Falls. This is a free, unstaffed campsite where you can pitch your tent anywhere on the expansive grassy field, perfect for those seeking a more adventurous, self-reliant experience amidst wild beauty. The emerald green river, fed by the cool waters of Mt. Chokai, provides an exhilarating spot for swimming and cooling off, allowing you to get up close to the powerful cascades. Summer is ideal for enjoying thrilling river activities, from wading through shallow waters to feeling the mist of the falls, or taking in panoramic views from the observation deck. While it offers a truly immersive wilderness experience away from the bustling city, remember to bring all your supplies as there are no on-site shops; however, a relaxing dip at Sarukura Onsen is just a 20-minute drive away after a day of exploration.
