    We're a boutique mountain lodge situated in a Unesco Biosphere reserve at the base of Mt Tanigawa, in Gunma, Japan. For nature lovers, there's a pristine mountain stream and waterfall right beside the lodge and great hiking in the mountains and valleys. Projects for this year include building a sauna, developing outdoor dining and general improvements, repairs and maintenance.
