Alps Boken Music Club

Roadside station on the Central Structure Line; near the former Kizawa Elementary School wooden school building, in Tyrol, Japan.

Private houses, buckwheat fields, and tea plantations spread over the slopes at an altitude of 800 to 1100m between the Southern Alps and the central structural line. The landscape of the unexplored area where the Toyama River flows through the deeply cut valley is worthy of the name of "Japanese Tyrol". The sky-no-sato viewpoint, where you can see the scenery of the village, is a popular spot that is worth a look. During the autumn leaves, the view from Plateau Lodge Shimoguri is good.

A highway that crosses Minami-Shinano, Iida City and Mizukubo-cho, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. Since ancient times, it has been used as a way of faith to Akiba Shrine and as a way to transport salt. It was also the path during the Warring States period when Takeda Shingen led a large army to plot the capture of the Enshuju. At the foot of Aozuru Toge at the prefectural border, there remains the site of the Liang no Kishima Bansho (only the exterior can be visited), built by the Tozan clan at the order of Ieyasu during the Sengoku period. However, the section from the area near the site of Liang no Kibai to Aikuru Pass is closed to traffic. You can visit Aikuru Pass from the side of the water.
