Wow hidden treasure indeed if one doesn't mind the cold. Hope there are nice trails around and look forward to reading the summer edition of this place.

Thank you. Yes, I’m planning to walk other areas of Tochigi along the rivers after the snow is gone. In general, that area is cooler than Tokyo, so summer is probably the best timing .

Wow, cannot thank you enough for sharing your one-of-a-kind walking escapades to non-touristy locations in Japan.

That's a great walk, photos are fabulous too and very atmospheric with snow cast against the fine Japanese detail of the buildings/hotels.

Thank you. Still a bit of a “hidden” Japan.
