I want to take a good bath even when I go camping!What should I do in that case?
Many recent campsites have facilities equipped with baths. There are also facilities that have shower rooms. Therefore, it is important to gather information in advance about the campsite you plan to visit.
Most campsites provide information about their facilities on their official websites, and if it is not listed, it is advisable to contact them to confirm. Since availability may vary depending on the season, timing, or plan, be sure to carefully check the place you will visit.
Depending on the location, there are many facilities with well-equipped amenities such as proud natural hot springs, open-air baths, private baths, and even jacuzzis and pet-only baths. Since you can enjoy bathing surrounded by nature, choosing a campsite based on its bathing facilities might also be a good option.
Also, even if the campsite itself does not have facilities, there are cases where another hot spring facility is nearby due to the campsite’s location close to mountains or rivers. At such hot spring facilities, amenities may be available for rent, making it convenient to use without adding to your luggage.
What kind of facility offers a large public bath at the campsite?
One of the facilities where you can enjoy a large public bath at the campsite is "Mobility Resort Motegi" located in Motegi Town, Haga District, Tochigi Prefecture. Here, you can enjoy nature-themed attractions and motorsports events held both domestically and internationally, making it fun for the whole family.
At Mobility Resort Motegi, there is an attached hotel called Mobility Resort Motegi Hotel, which offers a panoramic view of the circuit. Inside the hotel, there is a bathing facility called Nozomi Bath, where you can relax and enjoy a bath while gazing at the racing course and surrounding nature during the day, and under a sky full of stars at night.

For day visitors, the hours are from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. (reception until 6:30 p.m.), and guests staying at the Forest and Starry Sky Camping Village using glamping or other services can use the bath from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and the following morning from 6:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.

In case you forget your bath items, towels and other essentials are available for rent at a fee, and other amenities are well provided, so you can feel at ease.
