野火 NOBI — guided Suzuki Jimny off-road driving experience on private land in Yamanashi, Japan

NOBI
Drive a Jimny through
a private Japanese forest.
A guided off-road experience · Yamanashi · ~2 hours from Tokyo

No course. No crowds.
Just earth, stream and slope.

In a private plot in the mountains of Yamanashi, you take the wheel of a Suzuki Jimny and drive the forest — over a stream, up muddy climbs, between the trees. There is no set route. A guide rides with you, and you go at your own pace.

The Experience

You drive. We guide.

We provide the Jimny — Japan's iconic compact 4×4, with a light body, a ladder frame and low-range four-wheel drive, built for exactly this ground. You drive it across roughly five thousand square metres of unpaved private land.

A guide is with you throughout. No prior off-road experience is needed — you take the slopes and the stream at your own pace.

The Land
Size
A river-crossed private plot, about 5,000 m². Unpaved, and not over-groomed.
Stream
A stream runs through the land — places to ford, and deeper pools. In summer, clear to the bed.
Terrain
Not flat. Climbs, descents and mud. The kind of ground a low-range 4×4 is made for.
Silence
No one else around. Only forest, the engine, and you.
Stream
Ford the stream as it is.
Start by finding where you can
Slope
Up, down, and up again.
Flat ground is scarce here
Fire & Bath
After the drive, fire and hot water.
A wood-fired tent sauna & a goemon bath
