The third “Akigawa Valley Mystery Solving Eco Tour” is the popular hot spring facility “Seoto no Yu”

2020.12.06

This autumn, Tokyo Urayama Wonderland is releasing five consecutive “Akigawa Valley Mystery Solving Eco Tour” as a mystery-solving type regional tour content that can be refreshed in the wilderness of Tokyo even in the corona disaster. The long-awaited third “Dr.’s disappeared treasure” was released on November 19th.

The “Akigawa Valley Mystery Solving Eco Tour” is the appearance of a story displayed on a smartphone in the abundant nature of the area from JR Musashi-Itsukaichi Station to the Akigawa Valley area, which can be said to be the “back mountain of Tokyo”. While navigating by a person, visiting the highlights of the area and solving the “mystery” (a mechanism that cannot be solved without visiting the site) that appears in places, you will encounter the hidden charm of the area without knowing it. It is a device that you can enjoy and refresh in nature.

The decentralized event style based on the mystery-solving mechanism that you can go around at your own pace on an individual or family basis at your favorite date and time within the implementation period is the current social style such as “new lifestyle” and “new normal”. It is attracting attention as a new form of leisure that meets the needs.

The long-awaited third is a tie-up with Seoto-no-yu, a popular hot spring facility in the Akikawa Valley.
Seoto-no-yu is a popular hot spring facility that won the first place in the nation’s moisturizing skin category in the “Onsen General Election 2019”. It is also attractive that you can see the autumn leaves of the valley right in front of you from the bathroom or open-air bath.

If you purchase a mystery solving kit (with a hot spring ticket) at the hot spring shop “Asarou”, you can start solving the mystery as it is!

When you enter your password and log in, the characters that appear on your smartphone will guide you carefully, so you can solve the mystery with confidence.

The hot spring ticket is valid until March 31, 2021, so you can use it even if you don’t enter on the day or when you come again. On the contrary, it is OK to solve the mystery on another day.

In recent years, puzzle solving has become a big boom as experience-based entertainment, but this event not only allows you to enjoy it in the great outdoors, but also to enjoy the autumn leaves and hot springs, and you can enjoy it in Tokyo. Considering the social situation of Tokyo, it is a very nice day trip content.

Nowadays, the mind and body tend to shrink due to various anxiety factors, but why not try refreshing your mind and body happily while being healed by the power of nature in the back mountain area of Tokyo.

The autumn leaves around the hot springs are in full bloom right now, but the red maples will continue to grow in color as autumn deepens.

While the fallen leaves dance when the wind blows, the mission of walking while stepping on the fallen leaves piled up on the ground is truly special!
You will have a memorable autumn day.
