- "A stratovolcano located in Shinano-cho, Kaminouchi-gun at an elevation of 2,053 meters, it is one of the ""Two Hundred Famous Mountains of Japan"" and is called ""Kitashin Gogaku"" (five peaks of Mt. Kitashin) together with the surrounding mountains. The mountain is also beautiful in autumn when dahlias and cosmos bloom in the Kurohime Plateau at the foot of the mountain, and in winter when Lake Nojiri is covered with ice and the snow-covered mountain ridge is fantastic."

Nagano Areas
Nagano prefecture is an exciting mix of mountains, hot spring monkeys, and preserved Edo history. At the heart of the Japanese Alps, Nagano is one of the country’s most popular destinations, whether in winter for its snow sports and the much-loved Jigokudani Monkey Park or in the warmer months for discovering the undulating hills on foot. For fantastic Edo architecture, head to the Kiso Valley for a 60-kilometer stretch of quaint wooden buildings that marked the Nakasendo route 200 years ago.
