Hoshino Resorts RISONARE Yatsugatake has a variety of room types, but I stayed in the Wine Suite Maisonette. This is a maisonette-type suite room with a Bordeaux color scheme. It feels a little old, but it was well-maintained. The second floor has a stylish and cute lattice-shaped shelf reminiscent of a wine cellar. There is also a wine cellar with a selection of wines (charges apply). 📍Spot name: Hoshino Resorts RISONARE Yatsugatake Address: 129-1 Kobuchizawa-cho, Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, 408-0044 Telephone number: 050-3134-8093 #Accommodation #HoshinoResorts #RISONARE #RISONAREYatsugatake #Yamanashi #YamanashiPrefecture #YamanashiTourism #YamanashiTrip #YamanashiHotel

On the edge of Yamanashi Prefecture, there is a mountain with a strange shape. Its name is Mount Mizugaki. You won't find anywhere else the way the pure white mountain surface grows. It's famous as a mountain for day hikes. You can also enjoy camping in the mountain hut at the base. #MountainClimbing #MountMizugaki

On the way up Mt. Mizugaki, we found a spring! We went off the path a little to drink the spring water! It was chosen as one of the "100 Best Waters of the Heisei Era," and the water had no unpleasant taste and was very easy to drink! It was very cold, and soothed my tired body. If you're climbing Mt. Mizugaki, please stop by. #Mt. Mizugaki #Mountain climbing #Autumn leaves #100 Best Waters of the Heisei Era
