Nagano · Hishino Onsen Tokiwa Kan

1

'Kumonosuke,' an Open-Air Bath Above the Clouds

• ♨️Reached by a 90-second ride on the ryokan's own mountain cable car from the main building
• 🏔️A panoramic view unfolds across Mt. Tateshina, the Yatsugatake range, and the Okuchichibu mountains
• 🌲The Sorafuro open-air bath is an infinity tub made of koyamaki wood

2

A Range of Tubs and a Space to 'Reset'

• 🪵'Ishifuro,' the largest tub, is indoors and stays open even on bad-weather days
• 💧'Mizufuro,' a cold-water bath around 20°C, cools things off on a hot day
• 🍃'Totonoi,' a rest deck outdoors, lets the forest breeze reach you directly

3

Ground-Floor Bath in the Main Building

• 🛁The grand bath next to the lobby is open late into the night and early in the morning alike
• 🕚Open from 11:00 AM until 9:00 AM the following day
• 🚿A wider washing area makes it more practical than the rotenburo for shampoo and the like

4

The Signature Mountain Cable Car

• 🚠A private mountain tramway that carries you up to the 'Kumonosuke' rotenburo
• 🛤️Climbs a 130-meter track, with two cars passing each other along the way — a proper piece of engineering
• ⛰️Rising to about 1,050 meters through the forest, the ride itself is part of the experience

5

Kamado Dining, 'Momi'

• 🔥Fluffy rice fresh from the kamado hearth, served with freshly fried vegetable tempura
• 🥗The dinner plan pairs a set course with a buffet of side dishes
• 🍽️Built around local ingredients, changing with the season

6

The Signature Saku Carp Simmer

• 🐟The ryokan's signature dish, using carp raised in the clear tributaries of the Chikuma River near Saku
• 🍶Simmered fast over high heat with a secret sauce and sake, finished tender with no fishy edge
• 🌿The same clear-water carp also comes as sashimi ('koi no arai'), served with wasabi soy sauce

7

Forest Rooms at 1,000 Meters

• 🛏️Ten room types across the main building and Saiuntei annex, from Japanese-style to Western
• 🛁Saiuntei's maisonette rooms are two-story, each with its own semi-open-air bath
• 🌳Main-building rooms are designed to sit in harmony with the surrounding nature
