Wildlife Areas · Ski Areas · Onsen Resorts
The resort town of Yamanouchi-machi has plenty of contrasting, but complementary things going for it. High up in the mountains, the town's ski resort boasts world-class snow sports during the winter, and a wealth of hiking opportunities in the off-season. But two of the main attractions of Yamanouchi-machi remain all year long: the monkeys and the hot springs. Onsens have developed around the hot springs, while a monkey conservation area also features hot springs, where the Japanese macaques come to bathe, play, and keep warm when the snow comes. Use our Japan online tour itinerary planner to arrange the details of your trip to Yamanouchi-machi and other destinations.

    Where to stay in Yamanouchi-machi

    Jigokudani Snow Monkey Park ©
    As in most mountain resort towns in the country, the accommodations of Yamanouchi-machi lie spread out across the terrain, focusing on the main natural highlights. The hot springs close to Yudanaka train station have a fair number of the most frequented options, with new hotels and traditional ryokans with onsens, along with some more budget-friendly guesthouses. Look along the main highways leading up into the mountains to the east for ryokans and hotels heated by hot springs, as well as some ski resorts.
