When you enter the forest area called “Wadano no Mori”, the scent of green and the cry of cicadas become stronger. Hotels and pensions are scattered throughout the forest, and except for the slopes, it resembles the atmosphere of Karuizawa.

Matsukawa Bridge is a spot where you can see the three mountains of Hakuba beautifully. Turn left at the intersection just ahead of Matsukawa Bridge, and the Matsukawa River Road is just around the corner. It is a wide and comfortable road that almost no cars pass through.

The Tsugaike Panorama Bridge, which opened in 2013, stretches straight and feels good. Be careful not to overspeed! Just across the Tsugaike Panorama Bridge, the Tsugaike Kogen is an old-fashioned cityscape, lined with restaurants and souvenir shops.

The weeping cherry tree that blooms in the precincts is an old tree that is over 300 years old and is also called Omaki and Zakura. This is because it was used as a guide for sowing hemp seeds when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom.
