About
Shiga Kogen, located in Nagano's Joshinetsu National Park, is known primarily as a Winter destination. Indeed, with some of the best powder snow in Japan and Jigokudani Snow Monkey Park nearby, it's easy to see why. However, Shiga Kogen is a great summer destination as well. Escape the heat at over 2,000 meters and take in the rugged mountainous scenery. Hiking to Akaishiyama and Lake Onuma will be an unforgettable experience in nature.
