Togakushi’s shrines are spread across the mountainside, from the lower Hokosha up to the inner Okusha, and walking between them takes a good few hours. A guide explains the old mountain worship that grew up here long before the ninja did.
See Nagano’s snow monkeys, cedar-lined Togakushi Shrine, a historic sake brewery, and Zenkoji Temple in one guided day from Nagano Station.
