— Itinerary Introduction —
- Kamikochi
It is an undeveloped resort in the Northern Alps, preserving much of its original natural beauty and a treasure trove of nature. It has been awarded the titles of "Special Site of the World" and "Special Natural Monument." In summer, it is a popular summer retreat, attracting over 1.2 million visitors annually.
After disembarking at Taisho Pond, walk to the approximately 36.6-meter-long wooden bridge—Kappabashi Bridge—and stroll leisurely along the turquoise Azusa River. The clear lake water reflects the beautiful scenery of the surrounding mountains, and you might even encounter wild monkeys. While watching them play, please remain vigilant and pay attention to your safety.
- Kurobe Tateyama
The mountain road traverses the roof of Japan, passing through the continuous peaks of the Kurobe Alps, which rise to over 3,000 meters above sea level. Visit the arched reservoir built to block the Kurobe River and Lake Kurobe, formed by the reservoir's construction; the sheer scale of the experience is indescribable unless witnessed firsthand. Surrounded by natural forests, you can explore the pristine beauty of Japan's highest national park. The 90-kilometer route offers stunning scenery that changes with the seasons. Depending on the season, you can admire lingering snow, alpine vegetation, and vibrant autumn foliage—all waiting to be savored and appreciated. From the car window, you can gaze upon the 3,000-meter-high mountains and Lake Kurobe, a panoramic view reminiscent of a large-scale, three-dimensional panorama. From the verdant green of spring to the fiery red leaves of autumn, hikers flock to the area year-round to enjoy the scenery.
Ogisawa-Tateyama Route: Enjoy a variety of unique modes of transportation to reach the summit at an altitude of 2,450 meters and enter the "Roof of Japan".
- Stay at a hot spring hotel (Kurobe Sun Valley Hotel or Hakuba Sun Valley Hotel Annex or similar).
Breakfast and dinner: Enjoy a wide variety of local ingredients carefully selected by the chef, a feast of nature's bounty.
Thunderbirds are called "messengers of God" and it is said that people who encounter thunderbirds will definitely encounter happiness. Thunderbirds can be seen frequently around Murodo and Sanmi-ike Pond from late May to June.
