Situated in Wakasa, Fukui Prefecture, almost in the middle of Japan, Wanpaku Crew supports programs for learning about nature for elementary and middle school students around the country.
Safety First!
Our host sites all have AED units and emergency first aid kits.
We have a safety management system for emergencies in place for all related facilities and personnel.
Nature can be unforgiving. We need to keep safety foremost in mind, experiencing nature while learning what dangers there are.
We take extra care for safety management in bad weather. Our minshuku accommodations all regularly check their water quality, are fully insured, and the owners have attended courses given by the fire department and public health office.
If you provide us with precise information on food allergies anyone in your group has, we shall pass that on to each minshuku so that they can prepare special meals or do whatever else is needed.
*We may need to ask the parent or guardian to directly contact the minshuku by phone.
Instructors and office staff have taken many courses in first aid, including MFA (Medic First Aid / US first aid and resuscitation methods) and general life-saving skills (Fire Dept. / Japanese Red Cross).
If needed, our system allows for quick contact with hospitals, public health offices, fire departments, or the police
Some of our staff can communicate in simple English.
*Host areas have AED devices.
