This is a bamboo grove located along a clear stream in the uppermost reaches of Tsuyama City, Okayama Prefecture.

Although it is a small forested area of 107 tsubo (356 square meters), most of it is on a slope, making the surface area feel more expansive.

The entire land is covered with bamboo, and during the harvest season, a large number of bamboo shoots can be collected.

Grilling freshly harvested bamboo shoots on the spot is an exquisite luxury.

Owning this land to harvest materials for bamboo charcoal or basket weaving is also a viable option.

A very beautiful stream flows in front of the property, and being located in the uppermost reaches, it is a rare land where untainted bamboo shoots can be harvested in these times.

It is ideal not only for personal use but also for restaurant owners seeking to harvest seasonal ingredients.

The selling price is 120,000 yen (tax included).

Distant view from the road.

First, look for the fence shown in the image from the road.

The path inside this fence leads to the site.​

You will need to park your car on the road and walk about 5 to 10 minutes to the site.

There is a spacious area where you can park.

A vehicle with a width of 200 cm (78.7 inches) can reach this point without issues.

Beside the parking area is a splendid river, showcasing the unique beauty of the uppermost reaches.

There is another entrance on the opposite side of the mountain, but this time we will guide you through the closer route from the parking area to the site.

There is a bridge right next to the parking area; enter from here.

There is a barricade to prevent wild boars from coming down the mountain; step over it to proceed.

From here to the fence, there is no clear path; head in the direction of the fence visible from the road.

Choose the path that is easiest for you to traverse.

Having a machete or saw can be helpful.

After passing through about 30 meters  (98 feet) of underbrush and fallen trees, you will find an easier path to walk on.

Proceed along the path.

Eventually, a water channel will appear.

Continue along the water channel.

Along the channel, there are sections where the depth increases.​

Fish often inhabit these areas; catching char or pale chub and cooking them with bamboo shoots would be delightful.

And we've arrived. The bamboo grove on the right is the site.

View from above.

View from the side.

We tied white cloth as markers near the assumed boundaries.

This is a wild camellia.

The slope is not so steep that standing is difficult.

Lower down, there's an almost flat area.

If leveled with a shovel, you might even pitch a small tent here.

The slope faces north, making it cold in winter but pleasantly cool in summer.

Dry bamboo makes excellent firewood, but be cautious as it burns rapidly and fiercely—avoid burning large quantities at once.

Of course, there's a beautiful water channel flowing in front of the property.

We tied white cloth markers along the path to help identify the site.

Fortunately, the boundary on the right side (as viewed from the path) is clearly marked by a fence.

The bamboo forest doesn't require special maintenance, making it easy to manage.

Simply owning this forest can serve as a meaningful preparation for food shortages.

The white cloth markers serve only as reference points and do not guarantee boundary accuracy. Please treat them as rough guides.

As additional information, let me introduce Route 2.

The drawback of this route is the unclear parking spaces.

You will need to find a suitable spot nearby to park your car, depending on your driving skills and vehicle size.

If you don't mind walking a bit, there are wider sections along the road where you can park.

The entrance to Route 2 is here.

You can view it on Street View, so reaching this point is easy.

Route 2 offers a clearer path to the site.

There are no steep areas, making it a recommended route for women.

Upon entering, you will see graves and shrines; it's courteous to offer a brief greeting before passing through.

Some may feel hesitant, but encountering such sites in the mountains is common.

They are not to be feared; instead, pay respect to our predecessors and view them as part of nature.

Let's proceed.

A clear stream flows beside the path.

At this point, you'll come to a fork; please take the right path.

Continue following the path.

Looking up, you'll see a shrine.

There are also shrines beside the path; don't forget to pay your respects.

We've arrived at a gate.

It's closed off by a wild-boar fence, but the left side has a carabiner, making it easy to open.

Once opened, proceed to the left.

Continue along the path again.

We found a water basin here, but there seem to be no fish today.

Finally, the bamboo grove comes into view.

There is a carabiner at the center of the fence, allowing you to open and enter the property.

Please open it here to enter the site.

Please be sure to close it behind you when leaving.

As you may have noticed from the path so far, bamboo groves aren't something naturally abundant in mountain areas.

Mountains with small bamboo groves were likely planted intentionally by previous landowners.

Because bamboo takes time to establish, we hope you will appreciate the efforts of past generations who planted it for future generations.

A bamboo grove is essentially a maintenance-free field that produces bamboo shoots every year.

We recommend owning this property as a place for your family to enjoy annual harvests, or as a safeguard against food crises.

Bamboo shoots can be dried or pickled in salt to be enjoyed throughout the year.
