Cleanse the mind and body. Experience the Japanese countryside in a two-day, one-night stay.

Purify the mind and body with Zen meditation, forest therapy, and an overnight stay in the country. You can choose between staying in a traditional Japanese inn (ryokan), a cottage, or a farmhouse. The inn serves a buffet of Japanese and Western cuisine, while the cottage offers a glamping BBQ, and the farmhouse serves a barbecue featuring fresh, locally grown vegetables. You can also have dishes made with venison and local specialties delivered from local restaurants. The forest therapy offers 12 options in total for you to enjoy the forest with your therapist or guide and use all five senses to the fullest as you feel yourself being healed. You might even strengthen your immune system. *Forest therapy is a form of forest bathing (i.e., immersing yourself in the atmosphere of a forest) that has been scientifically proven to heal people and lead them to better health. The goal is to maintain or improve mental and physical health and prevent disease while savoring the forest. Forest therapy is neither hiking nor mountain-climbing. It is a new way of enjoying a forest, in which people enter the forest for their health.
