Bouldering experience in a natural rock

Experience bouldering on natural rocks in the lush green valley of Mitake, which is unlike anything you would expect to find in Tokyo. I have been climbing for over 10 years and have taken on many challenges, and I will guide you with the unique perspective of a local climber. I can also show you the Ninja Returns Rock, which is a little hard to find for the general public but is world-renowned among climbers, and a quiet rock area with few people. We will also provide careful support for beginners.
