Ping Feng Mountain PA [Descent]

A parking area located between Ena IC and Mizunami IC on the Chuo Expressway. It is located about 11.9km from Ena IC. In the food court, the menu is full of volume, including "sauce katsudon" and "jumbo menchikatsu set meal". Take-out menus such as "Hida beef croquettes", "gohira mochi" and "beef skewers" that fill small stomachs are also substantial. For souvenirs, we recommend "Kurikinton Langdosha", which is a lavishly kneaded chestnut from Gifu Prefecture. In addition, there are plenty of sweets using chestnuts.

Ping Feng Mountain PA [Up]

Located about 5km on the south side of the Uphill PA, Pingfeng Mountain is a mountain with an altitude of 700m running east and west for about 6km. The PA is located between Mizunami IC and Ena IC on the Chuo Expressway, and boasts an outstanding view of Mount Pingfeng. At the "Soba-dokoro Yoshinoya", a specialty store of authentic 10-wari soba, which is developed by the "Yoshinoya" of the beef bowl, you can enjoy freshly boiled 10-wari soba noodles. A set with beef bowl is also popular. There are also "Hanamaru Udon" where you can choose toppings by yourself and "Ministop" at a convenience store (open 24 hours). There is also a "Platto Park" where you can get in and out of the PA from the general road.

Yokogaya Gorge

In the 1 km valley where green trees flourish and the chirping of small birds resonates, four waterfalls appear in succession: Shirataki, Futamitaki, Momiji Falls, and Keimeitaki. The walking paths, stairs, and pavilions are well-maintained, making it perfect for enjoying a walk.

Hot Spring Temple

A temple located on the slopes of Mount Gerofuji, overlooking the hot spring town. Founded in the 11th year of Kanbun (1671). The main deity is the statue of Yakushi Nyorai, which is said to have transformed into an injured white heron to heal its wounds in the Hida River and indicate the source of the hot spring. Climbing the 173 stone steps leads to the main hall surrounded by trees. The precincts are filled with maple trees, making it a popular spot for autumn foliage. In mid-November, a light-up event for the autumn leaves is held. Ema (votive tablets) that convey the history of Gero are also dedicated here.

Blue

Under the theme of "living with a washi", we select from all over the country, mainly Japanese modern vessels and cloth products. Gentle clothes, shoes and bags made of natural materials are also popular.
