This museum dedicated to the subject of mountain culture and nature is located about a 30-minute drive from Shirane Interchange on the Chubu-Odan Expressway.

  • 登山の知識や歴史、南アルプスのことがわかり易い

    芦安温泉郷内の宿に宿泊したら、無料券をいただいたので、翌朝行ってみました。施設はとてもきれいで広い。南アルプスについてのビデオ上映もやっていたり、山で命を落とした方の特集をしていたり。登山に必要な道具が昔-現代にかけて展示してあり、登山の知識や歴史がよくわかり、南アルプスの地形の大きな模型があるので、登山道など立体的でわかり易い。地図やパンフレットも無料でもらえる。
  • 早め早めの行動が吉ですよ

    広河原までの乗合タクシーを狙って前日から駐車場で車中泊していましたが、乗合タクシーの争奪戦は早々に決着してしまい仕方なくバスに。バスも行列に参加してなんとか席を確保できたものの立ち乗りの人も多数。こちらを利用する場合は早めの行動が良いようです。
  • 時間があれば

    芦安の案内人の話とか、全然知らなかったので割と面白かったです。山に興味があれば行ってみてもいいかも?
