Auto campsite opens on former school grounds in Wakayama
Original source: agara.co.jp

In Minabe, Wakayama Prefecture, an auto campsite named Ume-no-Sato has opened on the former Seigawa Junior High School grounds, which closed in 2014. The site offers toilets and water; an overnight tent pitch for up to four people costs 3,300 yen, and a day-use pass is 500 yen per person. On weekends, 70–80% of visitors come from outside the Kii region, with up to 12 groups at peak times. A bouldering wall is available but currently opens only at night; the operator is considering daytime hours and walking routes.
