Bakery couple to pre-open campsite in Otaru

Daigo and Ayaka Tsuji, former owners of a popular bakery in Sapporo, will pre-open the campsite "PIMS OTARU" in the Momonai area of Otaru, Hokkaido. The pre-opening is scheduled for August 1, with a full opening on April 15 next year. The campsite will accommodate up to 5 groups per day and features tent sites, forest trails, a barrel sauna, and a trailer tent. The couple sold their bakery business in June last year and spent a year clearing a 10-hectare abandoned plot. Due to delays in container toilet delivery caused by the Middle East situation, the pre-opening was postponed by one month. Bear attacks occurred in the area last year, so local hunters will patrol the campsite.
