☆How?
Fold it in half and stand on the road right in front of ASO BASE, show it to those cars passing by toward the mountain… You will see, the cars will stop like Magic! It is written “Mount Aso” and “Aso Station” in Japanese. Yes, that’s for hitchhiking.

☆1hour guarantee (March ~ November)!!
When you try hitchhiking with ASO BASE TENUGUI 1hour and not succeeded, we will refund if you want. We have confidence that you can make it at worst within an hour because the road in front of ASO BASE is the main and only(from North) road toward Mt.Aso. So, most of cars passing by are going to Mt.Aso.

If you are a westerner(appearance-wise), it will be easier because a lot of Japanese seeks opportunity to get to know people from overseas.

This is also a good chance to get to know Japanese people, local or tourist it depends.

Even if you have never tried hitchhiking before, you can do it here! ASO BASE TENUGUI and ASO BASE staff will support your first challenge!

280yen for ASO BASE GUEST (regular price 560yen)
