Explore walking trails that wind through stunning birch forests, past small waterfalls, and alongside vibrant alpine flowers. Located in Sakuho Town, Nagano Prefecture, the garden is accessible via the Yachiho Highland IC (20 minutes) or the Yachiho Station on the JR Koumi Line (40-minute bus ride). With trails ranging from 30 to 80 minutes, visitors can tailor their experience to their fitness level.
