Forest Adventure provides 8 adventure courses which is integrated into the natural cedar forest. (For those suffering from kafunsho, a kind of hay fever caused by the pollen from cedar trees, beware!) After completing the courses, you will definitely enjoy a sense of accomplishment!
Access
The best way to access this place is by car. It is less than 5 minutes from the closest highway exit, Ogikubo IC of Odwara Atsugi Road. Otherwise, take the JR line / Odakyu line / Daiyuzan line to Odawara Station. From here, you will have 2 options: 1) take a taxi from the west exit or 2) take a bus to Ikoino-Mori from #1 bus terminal from the east exit.

Recommendation
This is a place of learning for the children. Therefore, trying out the courses with your family is a good way of enjoying this park. Note, the children has to be over 110cm in height. You are given the basic rule & guidance and the rest must be thought through by the child. Parents are not to give out the answer but caution the child when he/she breaks the Rule #1: to be connected by one way or another at any time with the carabiner once you are off the ground.
It might be difficult to see but a first grade girl is up on the trees. At the initial security briefing, she was so scared and had cried for 1 hour. But she had overcome her fear and was enjoying the activities.....until she arrive on the 5th activity.
Personally, I thought this was a team-building exercise that I had enjoyed when I was in the UK. It turned out not to be but very enjoyable even as adults.
