Hi, I’m Tabi!
This guide covers Kawakami village in Nagano, a place of highland farming, forest and Jomon archaeology. Distinguish it from other places named Kawakami, check onward transport from Shinano-Kawakami station, and prepare mountain outings separately.
This guide covers places within Kawakami, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Camping facilities and Kinpo Sanso sit below forested rock formations. The photo shows rocks from the parking area. Check camping, parking and hiking conditions separately and stay on designated paths.
Getting there Check current entry rules and return transport.
The village introduces lettuce and several leafy vegetables. Explore local produce while respecting private fields and checking current sales and ingredient information.
Try the cultural center and permitted paths around Omiyama after checking access. Plan Mawarimedaira and mountain trips with separate transport, equipment and weather checks.
