Local historyFirst-visit planCheck transport

Hi, I’m Tabi!

Explore Iwadatami’s rock formations and the approach to Hodosan Shrine. Colors and flowers in the photographs reflect their capture dates. River access and worship have different conditions; check water levels, closures and routes separately.

This guide covers places within Nagatoro, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Rock formations and trees at Nagatoro Iwadatami in autumn 201301

A first-visit stop

Nagatoro Iwadatami

長瀞岩畳

Rock formations extend in layers along the river. The photograph shows autumn 2013, not current water levels or foliage. Avoid wet rocks and exposed river edges and follow closures. This stop does not include entering the water or taking a boat.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

White torii at the roadside approach to Hodosan Shrine02

A first-visit stop

Hodosan Shrine

寶登山神社

The image shows the white torii at the roadside approach, not the mountaintop inner shrine. Use crossings and pedestrian routes on the way to the main shrine. A summit visit or ropeway ride is a separate plan requiring its own access checks.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The tourism association lists soba shops near the station, including Tajima. Consider soba or udon for a meal. Check opening and sell-outs, and ask about buckwheat, wheat and broth allergens before ordering.

Before you set off
