Mt. Norikura Goshikigahara Forest

The Mt. Norikura Goshikigahara Forest is almost entirely located within the Chubu–Sangaku National Park, a vast forest area covering approximately 3,000 hectares.
The Mt. Norikura Goshikigahara Forest Information Center offers two experiential trails through natural scenery: the Kamoshika (=Japanese serow) Trail and the Shirabiso (=Veitch’s fir, Abies veitchii) Trail. In addition to mountain streams, waterfalls, ponds, and wetlands, visitors can enjoy a variety of flowers and grasses, virgin forests, and wild birds and animals in all four seasons.
