Shibutsu Mountain Villa is best as a base for a walk around Ozegahara Marsh and a climb on Mt. Shibutsu. If you bring a tent with you, you can camp on the premises. There is a visitor center nearby where you can get information on walking in Oze to better enjoy the area.
During the season and if the weather is clear, you can observe the starry sky. In summer, fireflies flit about for you to enjoy. If you are thinking of climbing Mt. Shibutsu, you need to plan carefully, as the trails are open only during a certain period of time each year and the climbing routes are limited. The meals are mainly washoku (Japanese cuisine) and the guest rooms are Japanese-style. Reservation for a private room can be made for two guests or more. You may request a bento (packed meal) for lunch at the time of check in.
