Review & FAQ:
Part of the Chubu-Sangaku National Park, Kamikochi is an 18 km valley that offers spectacular views of some of Japan's most impressive mountain scenery. There are plenty of hiking trails that allow visitors to explore the valley and the surrounding mountains, and accommodation options include both campgrounds and hotels. The park is only open between mid-April and mid-November, and is particularly busy during July, August, and October. Private vehicles are not permitted to enter the park beyond the Kama Tunnel, but visitors may leave their cars in one of two parking areas and take a shuttle bus or a taxi to the visitors center.
