90 minutes from Nagoya. An inn where you can have a BBQ while looking at the clear stream in the secluded Marubara. Tent sauna rental for a fee
The cottage is located on the banks of the clear Marukawa River. Gifu is famous for Shirakawago and Hida Takayama, but Enbara is also a nice place in the mountains, although it is inconvenient. The scenery of the mountains and rivers is beautiful, and it is a place rich in nature where monkeys and deer appear. The Enbara River is known as the most beautiful underground water in Japan and a famous spot for its light, and the inn is located about 800 meters from the spring water point of the underground water, so the water transparency is excellent. You can also see the light from the inn. On summer mornings, depending on the weather conditions, you can see a magical view of the sunlight pouring through the trees. The water in the Marukara River is cold, but in summer the children play in the river energetically. The riverbed is much cooler, so people can escape the heat and cool off. A little downstream there are several river play spots, and the water is clear everywhere and it feels good to swim beautifully. The water of the river shines emerald green in a slightly deep place, and the scenery of rocks and moss is also wonderful, and it is a healing spot where the mind is purified. There is a deck facing the river on the second floor of the inn, so you can relax while watching the river, BBQ, swing in a hammock while listening to the river, or refresh yourself in the tent sauna.

15 minutes by car from Takayama Station / A traditional house for rent in a natural setting / For 10 people / 4 parking spaces / 2 bedrooms / Built 150 years ago
Built 150 years ago, the entire traditional Japanese house "Shaqyaku" is available for rent, nestled in the nature of Hida. About 15 minutes by car from the town of Takayama. Just a short drive away, you'll find a quiet rural landscape far from the hustle and bustle of the city. All you can hear are the sounds of birds and frogs. At night, there are many stars in the sky. Here, there are no luxurious hotel-like services or activities to fill your time. Instead, there is the slow pace of time in a 150-year-old house and the "breathing space" spent in Hida's natural surroundings. Gathering around the table with family and loved ones. Enjoy the view from the veranda. Read a book. Listening to music. Or do nothing. I don't do anything to live. "Shaoyaku" is an inn for enjoying such moments. --------------------
