With the Five Aso Mountains in the distance, you can hike along the firebreak that separates the grassland from the broad-leaved forest, and experience building a fire using pampas grass from the grassland. Enjoy a boxed lunch made with local ingredients while sitting around a fire you made yourself. Please relax and enjoy Aso from the time you check out of your hotel until noon.
First, walk along the firebreak to a place with a good view.
After gathering and listening to an explanation of the overall process, we walked along the firebreak (the area where the grass created when burning the fields is cut). It's a bit of a steep climb, so it's best to wear comfortable shoes.
This spectacular view can be seen within 15 minutes of walking.
A short walk will take you to a spectacular view of the five Aso mountains. Climb slowly, taking breaks along the way. The guide will teach you how to walk on the mountain path.
Try making a fire after hiking
Experience building a fire using silver grass from Aso and dead trees from mountain trails. Light the fire with a steel match and enjoy the bonfire.
Toast marshmallows after the bonfire.
Lunch after the experience
Lunch will be a boxed lunch wrapped in bamboo skin made by a local caterer for this experience. Enjoying a bento lunch in nature after a light hike is a great option.
