Efforts

Although Kamikochi, Murodo in the Mt. Tateyama and Tatamidaira in the Mt. Norikura are used by hordes of visitors, the area maintains a beautiful natural environment and landscapes without litter on the roadways, thanks to the efforts of all the people conserving the area.
In Kamikochi, local people have organized a group since 1963 aimed at beautifying the area to continue with the efforts to clean-up, beautify, and eliminate invasive species while the Kamikochi park volunteers, who are eager to conserve the natural environment and disseminate the beauty of nature to many people, get together to engage in clean-up and beautification activities, elimination of invasive species, maintenance and repair of footpaths and trails, nature commentary activities, guidance for visitors, and a survey of flora and fauna.
