掲載日:2021.12.27

The course we will be introducing this time is a recommended work plan for people who want to enjoy nature to the fullest in their free time while still having plenty of time for work, especially in the Akame area of Murou Akame-Aoyama Quasi-National Park!
Not only is it a comfortable work environment, but beef soup, pizza, sweets, and gourmet food are also essential! This is a plan that will definitely satisfy those people!



What is Murou Akame Aoyama Quasi-National Park?

Murou Akame-Aoyama Quasi-National Park, represented by TheAkame48Falls and AoyamaPlateau, is an area where you can enjoy both the majesty of the valley and the mountains.

For those who want to experience the soothing beauty of a valley that changes with the seasons, we recommend the KaochidaniValley /Kaochidani area. You can feel nature as it is, with numerous waterfalls appearing in the deep forest and a landscape of rock formations with columnar joints.

If you want to feel the refreshing breeze in a gentle grassland, go AoyamaPlateau. The gentle undulations are perfect for hiking and touring, and the park near the top offers a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains and Ise Bay, making it an area where the highland breeze feels pleasant.

If you want to enjoy mountain climbing and hiking in the series of mountains, then the Misugi/Iidaka area is the place to go. The Misugi area has been certified as the first ``Forest Therapy Base'' in the Tokai region, making it ideal for forest bathing to soothe the mind and body. The Iidaka area is a forest and mountain area that can be enjoyed by everyone from beginners to experienced kahadavalley, consisting of mountains and valleys that are more than 1,000 meters high and surround Kahada Gorge.

Stroll through the retro streets of Nabari, the birthplace of EdogawaRanpo

the previous article (activity edition),Continuing from I came to Nabari City, Mie Prefecture.

The theme of this time's Mietabi is workcation (work + vacation) in the Akame area NabariCity!
While actually writing this article, I'm going to visit Nabari's famous spots again!

for lunch today, but since I arrived a little early, I started by taking a walk around the station. As you stroll through the retro streets filled with nostalgic scents, you will be inspired to create more and more.I had reserved a campsite

While walking, I discovered the "EdogawaRanpo Birth Monument"! In fact, this area is the birthplace of EdogawaRanpo the founder of Japanese detective novels.

EdogawaRanpo 's works have pioneered new genres and greatly influenced various fields.
The origin of the name of my favorite character, "Conan Edogawa," the main character of "Detective Conan," is a combination of the mystery writers "EdogawaRanpo" and "Arthur Conan Doyle!"

As I was enjoying the wonderful atmosphere of the town, I suddenly felt inspired and came to the co-working space ``akeruto'' to write an article.

It just opened in July, and when you step inside, you can smell the pleasant scent of wood. You can use this space for 1,000 yen a day, and it's not only beautiful but also has common equipment. Work progresses♪


Enjoy the famous "Iga beef soup" at "Dainiya" where the ninja signboard will greet you♪

After working my brain a lot, I started getting hungry, so it was time for lunch!

The place I came to was ``Dainiya'' near the entrance of TheAkame48Falls.

I can't forget the taste of the beef soup I had last time, so I'll eat it at a different restaurant this time!

I ordered the "beef soup gozen".This restaurant had beef soup, dengaku, and rice as a set.

The beef soup is packed with vegetables and has a gentle flavor with a strong dashi stock. It was a very satisfying dish where you could enjoy the flavor of Iga beef.

Even though the five rules of Iga beef soup, such as always using Iga beef, are the same, each restaurant has its own preferences, so it's fun to try and compare!


Enjoy plenty of work at the TheAkame48Falls Campsite, which is surrounded by the Akame Mountains!

After lunch, I headed to the TheAkame48Falls Campsite, which I had booked.

A small and lovely campground surrounded by lush green mountains. The air is clear and it feels so good♪

While having a fun chat with the friendly staff, we were guided to the bungalow where we would be staying today.

The four bungalows named after TheAkame48Falls were all newly built in 2019 and are very beautiful!

Inside the room, there is a simple and stylish space, and it even has a loft! ! I can't believe we have such a wonderful bungalow! It's my first time staying in a bungalow so I'm excited!

Equipped with a table, a fluffy sofa bed, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning, the space offers an environment that makes it easy to telework while being surrounded by nature.

I sat down on the sofa and immediately started doing some research on my PC while summarizing the article I was currently writing! The quiet and comfortable space​ ​improves your concentration.

The article has come together nicely, so I'll just write a paragraph.

Let's have dinneron the lovely terrace full of greenery!

This is the popular rental pizza oven "Portable Pizza Oven KABUTO".

By baking the pizza in this pizza oven using wood or charcoal, the
​ ​texture is just like eating it at a restaurant!

It's good to make pizza from scratch, but it's also nice and easy to buy store-bought pizza, add toppings to your liking, and then bake it!

You can also enjoy a variety of other dishes depending on your ideas, such as roasted sweet potatoes. It's a reliable companion for camping meals!

After filling your stomach, take a leisurely walk around the area! A clear stream from TheAkame48Falls flows right next to the campsite.

As I walked along the river, I could hear the sound of murmuring streams and chirping birds, which was very refreshing. The water is shallow and the current is calm, so even children can play safely.

After walking around the area
, I returned to my bungalow and enjoyed some time for myself, watching videos and reading books. Well then, rest and prepare for tomorrow!

The sound of the river flowing was soothing and I was able to sleep very relaxed. Today, I took a leisurely morning to check emails, read articles, etc., and then checked out.

`` TheAkame48Falls Campsite'' has a variety of rental equipment such as tents, blankets, and tableware, and is a place where everyone from beginners to advanced campers can enjoy camping.The staff are friendly and full of love for the local area, making it a very cozy place. It was a homey campsite ♪

*By the way, TheAkame48Falls Campground is currently offering a "weekday limited telework support plan" for 3,000 yen for one day use (9:00-17:00) with meals included! Workations like this are also very welcome! It's a campsite, so please come and try it out.


Unique to this time of year! A light-up event at TheAkame48Falls, where a mysterious space spreads out♪

From the afternoon for a change of pace, I visited you on "Mietabi" before. TheAkame48Falls stroll around I will continue to do so..

The five main waterfalls among TheAkame48Falls are collectively called the ``Akame Go Falls.'' It takes about 5 minutes to get to the nearest ``Fudodaki'' from the entrance, and the farthest ``Biwa Falls.'' It takes about 90 minutes to reach "Biwadaki".

The walking time will vary greatly depending on your destination, so it's best to decide in advance how far you want to go.



If you're heading to Biwa Falls,
we recommend buying a bento box at a store or eating piping hot oden at Senju Chaya in the mountains!

The forest of TheAkame48Falls is surrounded by bright greenery and a refreshing breeze.
Take a breather while looking at the waterfall. The sound of the waterfall was soothing and soothing for both mind and body.


Okage-yokocho special feature! We will introduce in detail 33 popular spots for gourmet food, souvenirs, and experiences.

In fact, the best time to see TheAkame48Falls is at night!

At the Autumn/Winter-only light-up event, ``Yugen no Bamboo Akari,'' hundreds of bamboo lanterns surround the valley and flowing waterfall with warm light, creating a magical space.

This year, in addition to the main venue, the valley area, the forest area will also be illuminated! It looks like you can enjoy TheAkame48Falls, which has a completely different look than it does during the day.

If you come to Akame, you can't leave without buying something! Exquisite sweets “HekokiManju”


Since we walked a lot, we decided to have TheAkame48Falls' specialty `` HekokiManju'' as a snack!

HekokiManju is a ninja-shaped manju baked with sweet potato dough. There are 7 flavors in total, and it is an exquisite sweet that has the steamy texture and gentle sweetness that can only be found in sweet potatoes.

My whole family loves it too, so I bought it as a souvenir!

The staff were all as cheerful as last time, and they were very happy when I told them how much I love HekokiManju! A wonderful smile and kindness will make you feel warm.

Take a break at “HAPPY YOU Sankyuya” where you can enjoy new sweets unique to Nabari♪

After walking around TheAkame48Falls, we headed​ ​backto Nabari Station.

I had​ ​a little time until my train, so I went to a cafe called "HAPPY YOU Sankyuya" near the station!

At this cafe, lunches made with locally sourced ingredients and sweets made by Japanese confectionery artisans are said to be popular.

This time I ordered the ``Age Nabari Manju Ice Cream,'' which contains Nabari's famous confectionery ``Nabari Manju.''

Nabari Manju​ ​is a famous confectionery made by Sankyu-ya, a long-established shop founded in 1930, which is made by wrapping strained bean paste in a chewy thin skin. The Nabari Manju was fried here, and the skin was crispy and fragrant, and it went perfectly​ ​with the cold ice cream!

The tightly packed strained bean paste is also delicious and fills your mouth with happiness. It also came with a ``fuku bell'' modeled after the lucky bell of Nabari Ebisu Shrine, and we enjoyed the exquisite sweets that can only be found here.

The inside of the store was so quiet that the only sound you could hear was the music box, and there were many people working on their computers. Power cords are also provided at each seat, so it's a perfect place to stop by on a workday!

If you're concentrating on reading, it's about time. It was a wonderful cafe where you could relax and forget about time.
