A Campsite for dogs

It is located around 36km away from the center of Gujo-shi.
It takes 15 minutes by car from Takasu IC of Tokai Hokuriku Expressway to arrive at N.E.W Okunagara Campsite & WANKO. It is surrounded by ski resorts, and you can see the administration office when you drive along the mountain roads.

A major feature of this campsite is the whole campsite is limited to people with pets, like dogs.

According to the owner Mr Sakuramoto, “I refuse people who do not like animals.” As all people coming here love dogs, my guest can spend their time without any worry.

When you look at the camps, you can find dogs in every camp.
Doggies are running on the site and some are resting under the shade of a tree. They are all having fun.

It is a campsite with 32 sites in total.
As all are surrounded by fences, you can let your dogs run around without lead. You can also use a tent too.

There are two types, “For small and medium-sized dogs” and “For large dogs”. The site for large dogs has a slightly higher fence and the size is a bit larger too.
Each site is large enough to accommodate one car, one tent, and one tarp.
If you want a larger area, there is also a VIP section having an area 1.5 times the normal size. It is also recommended for those coming in groups.

Play with your dog without a dog lead

A dog pool where you can enter with your dog is recommended.
Mr Sakuramoto said it is a popular spot in summer that some people keep swimming there for a whole day.

In their dog park, tires are placed on the ground, and playsets for dogs to play, or small slopes to jump over, climb up, and climb down!

Shower room for dogs

As you can use direct fire at your campsite, you can cook by yourself. There are also 2 kitchens with cover and water supply.

You can find Roadside Station Kukkula Hirugano by 10 minutes drive. Local ham and dairy products from Hirugano are available. They are perfect for BBQ.

Toilet and shower building is located in the center of the campsite.
Japanese style and western-style toilets are equipped. Coin shower rooms (100JPY / 3 minutes) are opened 24 hours. 3 rooms for women and 2 rooms for men. A shower for dogs is also available.

Not only a campsite but also a place for communicating with dog lovers

Many regular guests are like to come here as all guests are dog lovers. They can make friends with each other.

According to Mr Sakuramoto, “Some guests drink together when they first meet at the camp. They meet here and come together in the next year.”

Many customers come from far away because of other guest reviews, which makes them feel it is not only a campsite but also a community place. That may be the reason why there are so many repeaters. That is why so many repeaters are coming again and again.
