Hi, I’m Tabi!
Kawanehoncho in Shizuoka offers mountain rivers and tea culture. Choose the Sumatakyo bridge, dam or tea facility as a separate outing, checking changes to rail services and return transport.
This guide covers places within Kawanehoncho, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Three places to begin
Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.
01
A first-visit stop
Dream Suspension Bridge
夢の吊橋
A pedestrian suspension bridge over water in Sumatakyo. The photo dates from 2005; water color varies. Its approach includes steps, and visitors must follow one-way and capacity rules.
Getting there Check current buses toward Sumatakyo Onsen and your return service
A visitor facility explaining the dam and Oi River area. The photograph shows the dam from a train in 2012, not the hall’s exterior. Respect restricted areas and check current opening information.
Getting there Check rail or road access to the facility in Umeji
A roadside facility introducing Kawane tea and local culture. Check current tea activities and exhibitions; this is a separate visit in Mizukawa rather than the suspension-bridge area.
Getting there Check the location and current transport to the facility in Mizukawa
The official guide features Kawane tea. Consider a tea tasting or packaged tea as a gift, checking activity bookings, ingredients, availability and brewing guidance at the facility.
Begin around Chameikan’s public visitor areas after checking opening and activity arrangements. Plan the Sumatakyo bridge separately with its steps and one-way route in mind.
