The distant mountains are covered in snow—so beautiful.


As soon as you get off the bus, you see the beautiful mountains reflected in the lake. The scenery here is amazing—it feels like being in Europe.
The bus drops you off right at Taisho Pond. You can walk to Kamikochi from here—either along the river or through the forest trail. Every route is a great walking path.
