2025 Komagane Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

Senjojiki Cirque is located at an altitude of 2,912 meters, directly below Mount Hoken in the Central Alps. From Shirabidaira at the base of the mountain, you can take a ropeway to the Yaguchi 900 meters in just 450 seconds. Inside the cirque, there is a walking trail just before the hiking trails to Mount Hoken and Mount Kisokoma, so you can enjoy the various seasonal scenery even in light clothing. In summer, the area is filled with blooming alpine plants, which are said to be a treasure trove, and you can take as many beautiful photos as you like. #mountaineering #greatviews #couplestrip #summertrip #walking

Senjojiki Cirque spreads out beneath the rock face of the alpine zone at an altitude of over 2,500m. A cirque is a bowl-shaped formation carved out by ice during the glacial period. I visited in late July. It was cloudy when I got on the ropeway, and I was prepared to not be able to see anything, but when I arrived at the top the fog cleared and I was able to enjoy the dynamic scenery✨ The hike, which takes you through the alpine plants, takes about 40 to 50 minutes. #Nagano #trip2022 #breathtakingview #alpineplants #hiking #mountaineering #girlmountaineering #summervacationtrip

I stopped by Komagatake Service Area on my way to Yamanashi Prefecture. It was my first time there, and it didn't seem very large. Still, there was a dog run, and it was fun to look for souvenirs, such as fresh vegetables from the area and walnut soba. There were many rare items that you won't find at other SAs. They've made efforts to let you see the faces of the producers, and I'd like to visit again. #souvenirs #supporttourism

#cherryblossom25 Okazaki City Minami Park is a charming escape where nature and tranquility blend effortlessly. Wandering through its well-kept paths, I found myself surrounded by lush greenery and calming water features. The park’s scenic beauty transforms with the seasons—cherry blossoms in spring, vibrant foliage in autumn. Families enjoy the spacious picnic areas, while solo visitors can soak in the serenity. Whether you're seeking a refreshing break or a leisurely walk, this hidden gem offers a perfect slice of peace amid the bustling city.

#FuriTabi We will introduce Mt. Utsugi, the second highest mountain in the Central Alps and the only one in the 100 famous mountains of Japan, also known as the Queen of the Central Alps! The starting point is Komagatake Land, which is close to the starting point. Since it is not a tourist spot, proper equipment is required. We started from the free parking lot at the ski resort and walked through the forest for a while. There are several forks along the way, but we recommend climbing Ikeyama and enjoying the view of Komagatake's Senjojiki Cirque. There is a water source nearby, so replenish your water if necessary. After passing Masenagi at the halfway point and going through the difficult areas called Ojigoku and Kojigoku, the vegetation gradually changes. You should definitely try climbing the huge Komishi. From here, the views of the Tenryu River below, Mt. Komagatake, and the summit are spectacular. After passing Komamine Hutte just below the summit, you will soon reach the summit. You will feel energized to overcome the fatigue you have been feeling so far! The summit is a ridge traverse route that continues north towards Mt. Komagatake and south towards Mt. Koshimoyama. If the weather is good, you can see the Kiso mountains, including Mt. Ontake, to the west. It's a little sad to leave, but the descent is long so we can't stay there forever.😢 On the way back, it's nice to pass by the shelter and admire the flowers along the stream! After descending the mountain, I'm wondering whether to finish off the day with Hayataro Onsen Town and Meijitei's sauce katsudon. Or maybe Carrot's ramen. Because it's a long way, many people start while it's still dark. You want to descend while it's still light! 📍Location: Komagane City, Iijima Town, Okusa Village, Nagano Prefecture

Mt Kiso Komagatake is situated at Sensojiki Cirque and it’s a beginner hiking route in summer which requires about 4 hours hike (return) . It is a very popular hike in Summer as you get to see the neighbouring Japan alps clearly in the summit. In winter, Mt Kiso turned into a slightly technical mountain to submit. Ice axe, and crampons are required. Good weather is definitely important. There is also chances of avalanche incident. Therefore it is important to check the weather forecast before attempting this mountain. ⛰️

I'm really into Yuru camp these days. Since I'm in Japan, I have to try going to the place in the anime!! I was actually going to Kamikochi, but the buses were full. I didn't want to risk my luck in the future, so I came to another place, the place where Rin stopped by. I went camping. I didn't think I'd get there!! There was a storm and it was raining. The journey was quite difficult because it was quite far from the city. I had to take a local bus - a bus - and walk to my destination. But it was fun and exciting. The nature around the temple is so beautiful. The day I went, it was raining, so there was a lot of fog on both sides of the road. But it was very cool. If you have a JR Pass, try stopping by. We took the bus from Shinjuku to Tatsuno, changed lines, and got off at Komagane, then took the bus. Follow the GPS and got off and walked for a while. Then we arrived. The air was so fresh!!! It was like taking a deep breath of ozone!! Note: The bus runs on a schedule. Check before you go. Otherwise, there won't be any buses back. 🤣 #japan #japan2023 #kozenjitemple #nagano #komagane
