Route of this time
We took this kind of road. There were many mountain roads and it was quite difficult(;・∀・).
Roadside Station Horai Mikawa Miseki
We had our meeting here, we went at the end of September and it was already cold because we were in the mountains(゚д゚)!.The temperature was 20~25°. It was a hangout for touring people, so it was fun to see a variety of bikes!(*´▽`*).
Roadside Station Donguri no Sato Inabu
We stopped here for a break. This place is bigger and more crowded than Hourai Mikawa Miseki.There is a store and a hot spring, perfect for a break(*^▽^*).This time, we did not go to the hot springs, but only to fill our stomachs lightly.
It is a sweet with white bean paste and chestnuts in the skin sold at a store. I think it cost about 200 or 300 yen. It is not too sweet, so it is easy to eat.(*´▽`*)
Chausuyama Kogen Parking Lot
Destination. I thought there would not be so many people since the autumn leaves had not started to change, but there were more than I expected(゚Д゚)ノ.The store here sold sausages and very large loaves of bread that would go well with alcoholic beverages.I couldn't buy it this time because I didn't have room in my luggage(;´Д`).I will definitely buy one next time I come back. You can see the Yatoko Pond from the parking lot, and it is beautiful. I thought it would be even more beautiful during the fall foliage season.
※The road to this point has many steep curves, so be careful of your speed. (It was good practice for driving.(*(*'ω'*)。)
※It is quite cold while driving as the altitude is over 1000m.
Urugi Onsen Komadori no Yu
I went to a nearby hot spring. Adults can enter for 600 yen. I thought it would be just a bath like a super public bath, but it was a well-structured hot spring that soothed my fatigue. The shampoo and body soap here smells like green tea. So I was surprised to smell tea when I went there at first( ゚Д゚).There is also an open-air bath where you can soak while enjoying the view of the mountains.I was too relaxed to leave.(/ω\).
Roadside Station Shinshu Shinno Sengokudaira
I had lunch here. It takes about 10 minutes by car from the hot spring. Since I came all the way to Nagano, I had tempura soba (1000 yen). (I was not expecting tempura at first, but when I tried it, I found that it was prawns.) At first I did not have high expectations for the tempura, but when I tried it, the shrimp was plump and delicious(*^▽^*).I am amazed at how good it tastes for 1000 yenΣ(・□・;).
They were selling corn soft serve ice cream outside, so I tried it. It tasted like cold corn soup and was delicious. I would like to keep trying strange soft serve ice cream when I find it.
