Arrive at Jigokudani Monkey Park and take a short forest walk to reach the hot spring area, where you’ll observe wild monkeys relaxing in steaming onsen pools.

Next, enjoy a traditional Japanese lunch featuring regional specialities such as Shinshu soba (buckwheat noodles) and seasonal vegetables. Opt for a sake tasting to complete your meal.

Visit Zenko-ji Temple and learn about Buddhist traditions and rituals, the temple’s hidden Buddha statue legend, and pilgrimage culture in Japan. Participate in the “Okaidan Meguri” (underground passage experience) if you wish.

Relax on the ride back while enjoying scenic mountain views.
