Experience the spectacular views on an exhilarating drive! Enjoy the great outdoors of Kirigamine Highlands 🚖

The Kirigamine Plateau, located in the center of Nagano Prefecture, is a soothing spot with magnificent nature and refreshing breezes⛰️🌿
The grasslands that spread across the plateau at an altitude of over 1,600m and the panoramic view of the Yatsugatake Mountains and the Southern Alps in the distance are amazing! In particular, when you drive along the Venus Line, you will be greeted with a spectacular view that makes you feel as if you are driving on a road floating in the sky.

For those who like hiking and trekking, we also recommend climbing Mt. Kuruma! You can enjoy a 360-degree view from the summit⛰️✨
From spring to summer, alpine plants bloom in full bloom, and in autumn, the golden silver grass fields spread out all over the place, making it very photogenic!
