[Japan] How to walk around Jigokudani Monkey Park in Nagano

I went to see monkeys bathing in hot springs in the snowy scenery 🐒 More than anything, the monkeys here are really friendly, fluffy and especially cute...I was fascinated by their adorable appearance bathing in the hot springs so comfortably!! Be careful, especially in winter, as the ground is very icy underfoot 😱 There are some very muddy areas and slippery slopes and steep slopes that continue for about 30 minutes, so please wear snow shoes ⛷️ It's harder than expected, so I recommend visiting in the season when the ground is not icy underfoot for small children, elderly people, and those who are not confident in their physical strength. *Some people with small children turned back halfway through. Also, I felt that 80% of the customers were foreign tourists, and most of the signs were in English, so even if you are not confident in Japanese, you can rest assured.
