Did you know that you can access Japan’s grand Minami Alps mountain range from Shizuoka?

The Minami Alps offer spectacular views of Japan’s mountains and attract hikers from the World over.

There are other activities you can do around the region too.

Soak in Sumatakyo Onsen’s hot springs, take a leisurely boat ride on Lake Ikawa, cross the region’s many suspension bridges, take a scenic train ride and enjoy the views of koyo (leaves changing color).
