Kamikochi is truly a great place to experience the amazing natural beauty of the central Japanese Alps. Choose from the many trails and you will see for yourself the secret beauty that exists when you slip away from the busy coastal life in the cities. The only skyscrapers here are massive mountains towering around you, and the busiest moments are where the crystal clear waters rush over naturaly smooth boulders and fallen trees. From Takayama Station, you can take a 60 minute bus to Hirayu Onsen, then a 25 minute bus to Kamiochi.
