[Must-See for Beginners] Campsite Rules and Manners

Enjoy camping while respecting proper etiquette.

To enjoy camping, it's important to follow the rules of the campsite. While some campsites have specific rules, this article will cover the general rules. If you don't follow the rules properly, you may end up in unexpected trouble with other campers, so please be careful.

Furthermore, make sure to communicate the rules outlined here not only to yourself, but also to your family, children, and companions who are camping with you.

- Do not trespass on other people's websites.

Be careful not to trespass on other people's campsites. You could accidentally kick over a tent peg and cause it to collapse, or knock over their equipment, leading to trouble. Unfortunately, theft has also been a problem in recent years, so you might be unnecessarily suspected of something.

Try to avoid visiting other people's websites as much as possible.

Incidentally, wires are effective for preventing theft. Just showing that you've taken precautions has a psychological effect.

・Never take your eyes off your child.

Keep a close eye on your children at the campsite. They might wander into other people's campsites or cause trouble for others.

Since they can get lost, be sure to keep an eye on them even for a short time. Having them wear a tag so you can track their location even if you're a little distance away is one way to help.

Obviously, you won't get the desired effect unless you maintain a Bluetooth connection.

Although it appears to have a power-saving design, the battery drained by about 4% in one hour when left idle without any other operations.

We considered an operation where the connection is only made when necessary, rather than a constant connection,

However, if we do that, the support function probably won't be available, so we won't be able to contribute to "creating a slightly kinder world."

Since it's for monitoring children, it's sufficient to use it only when going out. However, if you're using it for things like keys, you'll need a constant connection even at home, so the balance between convenience and battery consumption depends on your priorities.

Always make sure to extinguish any fires properly.

You can't afford to start a fire at a campsite. Make sure the campfire is completely extinguished before going to sleep. Using a fire extinguisher pot to put out the fire means you can use it again the next morning or next time, so nothing goes to waste.

Minimize the amount of smoke released upwind.

This is an unwritten rule of etiquette: if you produce smoke upwind, people downwind will suffer from the smoke, so it's best to avoid doing so as much as possible. That being said, the wind direction can change quickly, so be sure not to use damp firewood that will produce a lot of smoke.

Keep quiet at night and in the early morning.

Please be quiet at the campsite at night and in the early morning. Avoid playing music and keep your conversation volume down.

There are also families with small children camping, so it would be disruptive. Of course, you should also avoid arriving late at night and setting up camp at free campsites.

Please share the water source.

Since water and cooking facilities are limited, please be careful not to monopolize them. It's also best to avoid leaving personal belongings there.

Campsite rules to check when making a reservation

Check-in and check-out times

Check-in and check-out times vary depending on the campsite. Some campsites offer early check-in options for an additional fee, so be sure to check beforehand.

Waste disposal

Many campsites require you to separate your trash into designated garbage bags and place them in designated areas. Some campsites require you to take your trash home with you, so be sure to check the rules carefully.

Please don't leave trash outside, not just in designated trash disposal areas. Wild animals might come to scavenge it.
