What kind of town is Komono Town?

Komono Town in Mie Prefecture is a town with a population of 40,000 in the northern part of Mie Prefecture. Adjacent to Yokkaichi, the largest city in the prefecture, it is about 10km from the city and about 40km from downtown Nagoya.

Speaking of Komono Town, isn't there only "Yunoyama Onsen" and "Mt. Gozaisho"? I think this is what many people think, but it's not like that. In addition to historical and cultural tourist spots, there are also fashionable cafes, select shops, and other spots that will make you want to visit.

Let's go now!

Forest Adventure is a “nature symbiotic outdoor park” originating in France. Forest Adventure, developed by French company Altus, was established in 1997 as a facility for corporate training.

The fun of the park has spread outside the park and is now open to the public, and there are now more than 250 facilities in Europe and other parts of the world. In Japan, the first park opened in August 2006 in a forest 1,100 meters above sea level at the foot of Mt. Fuji.

You can hold hands like this and slide together. Yunoyama Forest Adventure is the only place where you can slide while holding hands. It's a miracle zip slide made possible by the miraculous location of the trees!

By the way, you are allowed to bring cameras and smartphones into the park as long as you do so at your own risk, and enjoy taking photos and videos. (Clothing with a pouch is recommended due to the possibility of falling)

If you want to enjoy the thrill and exhilaration in the forest, please go to "Forest Adventure Yunoyama". It is a spot where both children and adults can move their bodies to the fullest.
