Ontake Explorer Park

ONTAKE EXPLORER PARK is an off‑road riding venue and adventure field developed by KUSHITANI at the foothills of Mount Ontake. The site repurposes former ski area terrain into multiple off‑road courses, a cafe, event spaces and rental services for riders of different skill levels.

The facility offers day riding, rentals, on‑site cafe and conference rooms, plus event hosting and R&D use by KUSHITANI. Reception opens at 8:30 with riding hours typically 9:00–16:00; regular holidays and seasonal schedules are posted on the official site.

A compact, purpose‑built off‑road facility with options for beginners through advanced riders. The terrain uses former resort slopes and forested tracks, so expect varied surfaces and elevation changes.

Look out for:

• Multiple marked courses that vary by difficulty and technical features.

• KUSHITANI CAFE and indoor rooms for briefings or breaks.

• Rental equipment and trial/experience programs for visitors without bikes.

• Event days and manufacturer/test sessions—some days may host private bookings.

Best way to experience it:

Arrive at reception by 8:30, plan for riding between 9:00–16:00, check the official calendar for closures (regularly closed Wed/Thu and limited May–June schedule) and book rentals or event slots in advance if available.
