[Aichi, Gifu, Mie] 30 Family-Friendly Spots to Go in Winter!

It's okay even on rainy days! Indoor fun spots

木の香りに包まれながら、親子でのびのび遊べる「森のわくわくの庭　輪之内店・養老店」

"Moriwaku market" in Yoro-cho and Wanouchi-cho in Gifu Prefecture reopened in July 2019 as "Forest Wakuwaku Garden"!

A wide variety of playgrounds using wood from all over Japan, such as bouldering and mazes, have been added to the vast site of each facility exceeding 1,000 tsubo. These two wood education facilities were born from the idea of "We want them to play with all their might as if it were their own garden!"

Play on wooden athletics, relax on the lawn, eat delicious gourmet food, and read. It is a spot where parents and children can play all day even on rainy days.
