The Place to Experience Kiso Valley's Distinct Culture

Kiso River Valley


Description

Located in an old wooden schoolhouse in tucked in between mountains in the scenic Kiso River Valley, the Activities Hall offers a full menu of activities to experience the area's distinct culture and traditions.

The on-site restaurant "Shiki" (Four Seasons) offers soba noodles made from freshly-ground buckwheat grown in Kiso as well as the local specialty, bite-sized 'gohei-mochi' sticky rice grilled with a sweet sauce made from 'egoma' grown in the Activity Hall's garden.
