Oirase Keiryu Hotel (Accommodation)
Oirase Gorge is filled with clear streams, moss-covered rocks, and forests of deciduous broad-leaved trees. Lush fresh greenery in spring, brilliant autumn foliage, and a world of snow and ice in winter. These landscapes are so remarkable that the area has been designated both a Special Place of Scenic Beauty and a Natural Monument.
Oirase Keiryu Hotel is the only resort hotel built on the banks of Oirase Gorge.
