Lake Megami Nature Discovery Walk

Walking with a guide makes the usual nature even more interesting.

This nature experience program involves a leisurely walk along the shores of Lake Megami with a hotel-exclusive nature guide certified by the Japan Mountain Guide Association.
The trees in the forest, the seasonal wildflowers, the wild birds, and the small creatures—natural elements that we often overlook when simply walking along—are full of hidden discoveries and wonders if we look closely.

"Why is this plant growing here?"
"Are these berries edible?"
"How did this forest come to be?"

Through nature interpretations by guides, we will introduce not only the characteristics of plants and animals, but also the origins of nature, the connections between living things, and ways to appreciate and enjoy nature that are unique to each season.
Depending on the season, you might also come across edible nuts and wild plants, including wild grapes.
Small "insights," "discoveries," and "surprises" that can only be found with the help of an expert guide.
This approximately one-hour nature program not only teaches you about nature, but also makes the act of observing nature itself enjoyable.
