Inagi Fureai Forest Frequently Asked Questions

About Fureai Forest

Q1: What kind of facility is it?

Inagi Fureai Forest is a facility for Sound Youth Development. It is an outdoor facility (free of charge) used by local elementary schools and youth development district committees for educational activities and nature experiences.
From mid-March to June, August, and from October to November on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays when there are no reservations, it is open to the public, allowing Inagi City residents to use it. Overnight stays are only possible when local elementary schools and youth development district committees use it for educational activities and nature experiences during the district and school open periods. General public cannot stay overnight.

Q2: Can I have a barbecue?

There is a stove for cooking with a rice cooker as part of educational activities, but it is not suitable for barbecuing. We recommend bringing your own barbecue set.
We lend out tools such as plates, pots, knives, and cutting boards. Please prepare your own ingredients, fuel (firewood or charcoal), and drinking water (the tap water in the facility needs to be boiled).
However, bringing in and consuming alcohol is prohibited.

Q3: I would like to use the Fureai Forest.

During the general open period, anyone can use the facilities on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays, regardless of whether they are from within or outside the city.
However, if a group of 10 or more wishes to use the facilities, please confirm in advance whether the desired date and time are available (please check with the Children and Youth Division by phone), and applications must be made using the reservation form below at least one week in advance. The total number of users for all groups is limited to 50.
