Plan description

Snow Country Uonuma is a region where traditional wisdom is utilized, and a lifestyle of living in harmony with nature and experiencing the joys of the four seasons is cherished and passed down to the present day. A local guide will share some local tidbits as you explore the area. Visit Untoan, a Zen temple associated with Uesugi Kenshin's son, Kagekatsu. Surrounded by 400-year-old cedar trees, the stone-paved path is inscribed with sutras, and simply walking along the approach to the temple will bring you blessings. Operated by sake maker Hakkaisan, Uonuma no Sato is located in Nagamori, Minamiuonuma City, overlooking the sacred Mount Hakkai. The satoyama area is dotted with relaxing spots, including a beer brewery, soba restaurant Nagamori, a public employee cafeteria, Nigirime Shiteppen, confectionery shop Satoya, and Tsutsumi-ya Hachigura. The tour lasts two and a half hours, with free time for lunch. Finally, you'll explore Makino-dori Street, featuring the beautiful Gangi (arched gates) unique to snow country. The tour departs and arrives at Echigo-Yuzawa Station, and tours popular spots in the guide's private car. [Meeting] JR Echigo Yuzawa Station West Exit Rotary [Course] Echigo Yuzawa Station → Untoan → Uonuma no Sato (free lunch) → Makino Street → Echigo Yuzawa Station [Ending] JR Echigo Yuzawa Station West Exit ・Who is this experience recommended for? ○ People who love history, shrines and temples, and historic streetscapes. ◯ People who are interested in food culture, such as sake and fermented foods. ◯ People who are interested in life and culture in snowy regions. ◯ People who enjoy listening to guides' stories ・Why this experience? Untoan and Uonuma no Sato are very popular, but they are difficult to access from Echigo Yuzawa without a car. That's why we've designed a small-group tour led by a certified guide in a private car. Why not explore the tourist spots while listening to local stories from the locals?
