Visited on 6 Nov. Autumn leaves for this year are late, so the shrine is not so pretty. Nevertheless the shrine is still impressive

Surrounded by very tall trees. Parking is easy.

Absolutely worth coming to see the plum blossoms! It was my first time witnessing such beautiful and fragrant plum blossoms – truly delightful. Taking the ropeway round trip costs 600 yen, and if you come by car, parking is 500 yen. I highly recommend coming here to relax; starting from January, you can enjoy the plum blossoms, and they should be in full bloom by February.

Beautiful, well-maintained shrine. Momiji making it even better. 10-15 min walk from Nagatoro station, slightly uphill. We went on a Saturday morning a bit earlier than most of the crown. At around 11am as we were departing, more people are pouring in so I think it can get crowded on weekend peak hours.

A really well cared for, clean and beautiful. Free parking at the bottom of the shrine. Not very stroller friendly because if the stairs and pebbles so baby carry or walking is best.

Quiet place. The shrine is very beautiful and same with all places in Japan very clean and organize. A lot of parking spots. A quick tour will be sufficient.

Hodosan shrine enshrines the Emperor Jimmu who founded Japan. I instantly felt an atmosphere, enhanced by the shinto music playing on the grounds, as we approached the torii of the shrine. The benevolence of the shrine is believed to be protection from disasters. It is a common place for hikers to pay homage as one of the three Kami (Gods / Deity) enshrined here is a mountain deity. But it is also because the shrine has a sub branch at the top of Mt Hodo - hikers pray at the base shrine and then climb to the top of Mt Hodo and devote there too. The architecture of the almost 2000 year old shrine is magnificent. The various auxiliary shrines are impressive too. And the grounds are beautiful. It is easily accessible by public transport too, as you can walk up from Nagatoro station in about 10 to 15 minutes.

Most popular shaved ice shop in Nagatoro. Their ice is not made by freezer. They use natural ice. So when you eat it don’t need to bite like as general shaved ice. It will be naturally melt in your mouth. Price is pretty expensive even though just shaved ice. This is only negative point.

Came here on mid September 2022 around noon. We didn't have to wait for long even though there was 4 groups in front of us. Our kakigori came right after we ordered it (less than a minute). IMO overall the kakigori tasted nice but rather pricey.

Worth the detour here on route to Tokyo from Gunma. The Asami’s Super Special with the wasanbon syrup and 3 types of paste - red bean, green bean and white bean, is the one to order. The paste were all so silky smooth and the wasanbon syrup wasn’t too sweet. It felt like I was eating off a snowy peak mountain!

Strawberry & Milk. very good. fantastic!!

Amazing mocha favor with red bean, the shaved ice was given full of the bowl. Mocha taste is really good, also offered condensed milk. Even though a little bit pricey, but it’s a cozy place to take a break and have afternoon tea. Ice bowl price around 1300~1700yen, drinks around 600~800yen.

About as pricy as Thailand’s “After You” shaved ice, which is a rich flavored decorative one, but this one here gives a different sensation. Natural cave ice made of super soft water provides smooth silky texture I never experienced before. Worth a try.

They serve delicious shaved ice from natural ice outside. So snowy feeling.

Scenic spot with rock formations and a cool river. You can buy tickets for rafting and riding a boat but the lines are long.

When you walk far away enough from the area everyone is in, it is a nice place to relax and watch some frogs. If you move the frogs will bury themselves underground, but if you stay very still, they'll emerge, and they are very cute. It seems you can ride boats here too, but it's just a nice place to walk along the river really.

A really beautiful place to have a stroll around. Trails are parallel to the river with many spots to sit and have a snack, take pictures and look at the beautiful river view.

Too many tourists. I haven't been out much this past 10 years in Japan. It was a shock. The area is picturesque, and a nice drive, lots of winding roads (if you like that sort of thing). The actual area around the one little rocky outcrop, it's your regular fare of touristy shops. Nothing I would write home about. The boat rides were also busy. I don't really see it as a too relaxing. I think there are better places to enjoy the water and solitude.

It is an unusual terrain with a series of huge rock formations. There are many people near the boat pier, but as you move away from that area, the number of people decreases. It is a very relaxing place rich in nature. The kids enjoyed their rocky adventure. We can find many tadpoles and frogs here. The view of the boats on the river is also beautiful. The boats are very popular and you may have to wait in line for quite a while to get tickets.

Saitama is quite far, but definitely a unique experience! Its beauty and simplicity makes the place even better. It’s also a great place for adventure, as there are many different things to explore.

Beautiful place to enjoy the nature. But not really recommended to visit in winters (of course you can just mark it off on the checklist). Preferably go in spring/summer. DON'T do the boat ride. It's so useless. 1000 yen for a 20 minutes ride. They may shorten the ride according to them but will not change the price. NOT WORTH. Other than that, great place to enjoy nature and good food.

Classic Shaved Ice - the Best in Town! We are lucky to be there as the 1st customer of the day! The original shaved ice is really yummy. Easy access, just walking distance from Nagatoro Station.

There is a long queue but quite a few people can eat shaved natural ice in the restaurant due to covid-19.

Popular shaved ice joint in Chichibu. A little pricy but good shaved ice in the hot summer

I am not a fan of shaved ice, but this is really tasty! I would recommend to eat in, they have special flavours in cafe menu, which are not available for take out, like shaved ice with umeshu! Also the one with black sugar was really nice. The cafe had this very Japanese atmosphere to eat, so if you want to feel like you're in Japan this is the place to visit.

Great find. Re-newed my taste in Kakigori. This is what it should taste like!!

Flowry and gloriously pretty

Yummy!

A nice local museum in Saitama. The staff are kids friendly.

A really wonderful museum to learn about the surrounding area. The nature section with the interactive lights is especially popular with kids. Complete the map and get a small prize from the front staff. Admission is free for kids and $2 for adults. The museum is about a 1km walk from Nagatoro station.

Lots of natural lighting, good explanation for the local natural historian - foreigners prepare to use your translation apps ready. Low entrance frees - 200JPY

I learned a lot about Saitama and Japan, and I found the geological exhibits really interesting. There was also a showcase of a lot of the animals that roam or have once roamed the area. They have a lot of different fossils of exticlnct animals. I really enjoyed the megalodon. It's only 200 yen (2 bucks ish) if you are in Nagatoro River rafting and want to spend time learning about the area you've just rafted this is the place to go.

A small museum but very well done, and really a lot of cool stuff inside. You can even buy some fossils for really cheap and the entry to the museum was like 200 yen. On top of that the museum had the best taxidermy animals I've seen. Also insects, giant fossils, few dinosaurs, plenty of interesting rocks and loads of stuffed animals.

Amazing place. 100% recommend It's a little far but it worth it

Very good place. It is really impressive to see so many animals in Saitama.

The experience while rafting was amazing. The staff were very helpful and cooperative. We had a lot of fun while playing games while rafting and even went to a waterfall en route. It is a must visit destination.

The river rafting activity was so fun. We friends enjoyed every moment of it. Nice place to try river rafting with your friends and family. The guides were so friendly.

Rafting was a wonderful experience and we all enjoyed it. Our guide was very fun and enthusiastic and could speak many languages too. Overall, worth 6/5 star

It was an outstanding experience. The guides were very helpful and we enjoyed every minute of the adventure. Looking forward for experiencing the same with my family in the future. Will definitely come back and try again!

Had a fantastic time! Staff are so fun and friendly. Our guide Bika-chu was amazing. Very safe, comprehensive instructions but didn’t feel like work at all. Great experience!

It was so much fun from the beginning to the end. Jiro San was very knowledgeable and very safety conscious which put me at ease throughout the rafting experience. I highly recommend everyone to try this at least once.

A fantastic, fun rafting experience. Full of games, sightseeing, and teamwork. Vikas was an incredible guide!

Owner was incredibly friendly. Sandwiches and the crunchy bits on the drink taste good

Best Matcha Latte I ever had and very kind service ♥️

🙂/🥹 Matcha latte and hojicha latte were well done. Slightly sweetened and not TOO sweet.

Excellent hijocha and macha latte. Probably one of the best I've had in Japan. You purchase from the outdoor facing stall.

(Translated by Google) Even though I don't like matcha, I really love this matcha latte. I ordered the roasted green tea latte for the first time, and it was just too good... I always stop by when I go to the Chichibu area! He's such a nice and handsome guy that even the shop owner can't help but say "NICE TO MEET YOU!" (Original) 抹茶が苦手な自分でもこの抹茶ラテはほんとに大好き。ほうじ茶ラテを初めて頼んだけど、こっちもほんとにうますぎる...。 秩父方面に遊びに行く時は必ず寄らせていただいてます！ 店主さんも思わずNICE TO MEET YOUと声をかけてしまいそうなナイスガイなイケメンさんです！

(Translated by Google) I came here based on word of mouth from a friend. 4/12 Came to the store around 1:30pm on Saturday. A tea shop near Kaminagatoro Station A gravel parking lot that can accommodate about 4 cars is located to the left of the front of the store. A shop located a little far from the main street When I arrived, there were already 3 cars parked and there were no customers in front of the restaurant, so I was wondering about the menu. For the matcha latte and hojicha latte, you can choose syrups with different flavors, and you can also choose between soft serve or whipped cream toppings...and there's also a seasonal menu... For now, make a cold classic rich matcha latte with whipped ice and make it 1.5 times thicker. Chocolate sauce and brown rice flakes are free toppings, so of course I asked for them. Matcha latte in a large cup❣️ It's topped with soft serve ice cream and whipped cream, and looks delicious with chocolate sauce and brown rice. The first sip is bittersweet and the matcha is strong!! Deliciousness that is irresistible for matcha lovers!! But as you continue drinking it, the cream gets mixed in and the sweetness of the chocolate melts into it, making it a little sweeter and even more delicious.The brown rice that occasionally pops into your mouth is a nice accent. Of course we also have hot lattes. Hot sandwiches also seem to be a popular item. The hojicha latte was also strong and delicious! The matcha is brewed after receiving your order, so it may take a while for it to be served. But I thought I'd definitely stop by when I came to Nagatoro❣️ (Original) 知り合いの口コミで来店しました 4/12 土曜日の13時半頃来店 上長瀞駅近くにあるお茶屋さん お店の正面左隣に4台ほど止められる砂利の駐車場 大通りからは少し奥にあるお店 来店時はすでに3台停まっていて、お店の前にはお客さんは居なく、メニューを見ながら悩みました 抹茶ラテとほうじ茶ラテはそれぞれフレイバーの違うシロップが選べ、なおかつトッピングのソフトクリームとホイップクリームが選べる…しかも季節限定のメニューも… ひとまず冷たい定番の濃厚抹茶ラテのホイップandアイスにして、1.5倍の濃さに チョコレートソースと玄米のフレークは無料トッピングなのでもちろんお願いしました 大きめのカップに抹茶ラテ❣️ ソフトクリームとホイップクリームが乗っていてチョコレートソースと玄米でなんとも美味しそう 一口目はほろ苦く抹茶が濃い!! 抹茶好きにはたまらない美味しさ!! でも飲み進めていくと、それぞれのクリームが混ざりチョコの甘さも溶け込んで少しずつ甘くなっていってさらに美味しく、たまに口の中に入る玄米もいいアクセントに👌 もちろんホットラテもあります ホットサンドも人気商品みたい ほうじ茶ラテも濃くて美味しかったです！注文を受けてから抹茶を点てて作ってくれるので、提供まで少し時間はかかります でも長瀞来た時には必ず立ち寄ろうって思いました❣️

(Translated by Google) I ordered takeout on a weekday evening. There was no wait time. The matcha flavor was rich and delicious. After a canoe rafting experience nearby, they offered extra whipped cream, so I ordered extra cream for my matcha latte. (Original) 平日夕方にテイクアウトしました。特に待ち時間はなく頼めました。抹茶の味が濃厚で美味しかったです。 近くのカヌーテラフティングで体験した後だとホイップ増し増しにしてくれるサービスがあったので、抹茶ラテ　クリームマシマシです。

Soba here is really tasty but not so expensive in such a sightseeing town, the other dishes seemed good, too. Also, this place functions as a Japanese-style inn.

😀/🥹 EXCELLENT tororo soba and oden. The Gaku soba was well done too. I really liked this find, and they had their regulars in even though it was very very early.

Cheerful family-owned soba restaurant attached to a minshuku. They have a floor seating section at one end with kids toys. Good for kids.

(Translated by Google) I visited on March 16, 2025 during preparations for opening on a stormy day with snow. Even though they were busy preparing for the store's opening, the store staff was happy to help. I ordered the Kamozaru Soba, which was well-received by the reviews. I was a little worried about the zaru on a cold day, but the dipping sauce was warm, so it was delicious. It was a sweet dipping sauce that is rare in the Kanto region. The flavor of the duck meat came out and it was very delicious, just as the reviews said. There is a gravel parking lot (for 5 to 6 cars) right next to the store, so it's okay if you come by car. It is also close to Kaminagatoro Station, so it is easily accessible on foot. (Original) 2025年3月16日、雪が降る荒天の開店準備中に訪れました。開店準備で忙しい中でも快く店員さんが対応してくれました。 クチコミで好評だった鴨ざるそばを注文。 寒い日にざるはとも思いましたが、つけ汁が温かいつけ汁だったので、美味しく食べられました。関東では珍しい甘めのつけ汁でした。鴨肉の旨みが出ていて、クチコミ通りとても美味しかったです。店舗の直ぐ右隣に砂利の駐車場(5〜6台)停められるので、車で来ても大丈夫です。 上長瀞駅にも程近いので、徒歩でもアクセスが良いです。

(Translated by Google) 2025.4 First visit Today's lunch Visiting Soba Restaurant Gakkuya in Kaminagatoro It's my first visit I thought it would be Tenzaru or Chilled Tororo. There was a strange menu The order is Chichibu miso pork chili oil soba 1300 yen Spicy chili oil soup It has a smooth texture that goes down your throat. It goes well with soba! The pork is finished a little sweetly. Add it to the soup with green onions It's delicious! Add a raw egg halfway through to change the taste The mildly flavored tsuyu is also delicious. At the end, we had some soba-yu, and It was delicious The landlady who serves customers very brightly? After all, a shop with good customer service Nice (Original) 2025.4初訪問 今日のランチ 上長瀞のそば処勉強屋さんにお邪魔 初訪問です 天ざるか冷やしとろろかなと思っていたけど 変わったメニューがあったので オーダーは 秩父みそ豚ラー油蕎麦　1300円 ピリ辛のラー油のツユ 喉越し良いツルッとした 蕎麦にあうね！ 豚はちょっと甘く仕上げてあって 長ネギと一緒にツユにつけて うまうまだ！ 途中から生玉子を投入して味変 マイルドに味わいになったツユもまたウメエ 最後は蕎麦湯をいただき、ゴチ 美味しかった とても明るく接客する女将さん？ やはり、接客の良いお店は いいねー

(Translated by Google) I ordered walnut sauce soba noodles, tempura soba noodles in cold sauce, and miso oden (miso dengaku). I ordered the large portion, which was quite filling with just two pieces. The konjac miso oden was also delicious. There are plenty of seats, so it seems like you'll be able to get in quickly on days when there aren't any large groups. The staff were also friendly. Apparently, people using the nearby canoe rafting service get a free mini shaved ice. (Original) 胡桃たれ蕎麦と天ざる蕎麦、味噌おでん(味噌田楽) を頼みました。 大盛りにしたら2枚でかなりのボリュームでした。 こんにゃくの味噌おでんも美味しかったです。 席数が多いので団体利用がない日ならすぐ入れそうでした。 お店の方もフレンドリーでした。 近くのカヌーテラフティング利用者はミニカキ氷サービスしてもらえるそうです。

(Translated by Google) I stopped by Sobadokoro Benkyoya in Saitama on my way back from a SUP experience. The soba noodles I had this time were topped with pork. The soup had a strong dashi aroma, and was rich and flavorful, yet had a clean aftertaste. The pork was tender and not too greasy, making it an excellent match with the soba noodles. The portion was just right, and the delicious flavor soaked into my body after a workout, leaving me very satisfied. The restaurant's interior had a calm, old-fashioned atmosphere, and it felt cozy and nostalgic. However, on the day I visited, the air conditioning was a little old and not very effective, making it a bit hot. Still, the food and atmosphere were appealing enough, and it's a restaurant I'd like to try different soba noodles again if I'm in the area again. (Original) 埼玉にある「そば処 勉強屋」へ、サップ体験の帰りに立ち寄りました。今回いただいたのは豚肉がのった蕎麦で、つゆは出汁の香りがしっかり効いており、旨味とコクがありながらも後味はすっきり。豚肉は柔らかく脂っこさも控えめで、蕎麦との相性が抜群でした。程よいボリュームもあり、運動後の体に染み渡るような美味しさで大満足。店内は昔ながらの落ち着いた雰囲気で、どこか懐かしさを感じさせる居心地の良さがありました。ただ、訪問した日は空調がやや古いのか効きが弱く、少し暑さを感じたのが気になりました。それでも料理の味と雰囲気の良さは十分魅力的で、また近くに来た際には違う蕎麦も試してみたいと思えるお店です。

Loved the kakigori/かき氷 because it was fluffy and pure-tasting. Had the strawberry and also tried melon flavor.

Lunch here is good and service is friendly. No English menu provided but we use google translate to help us.

nice food and service here .

(Translated by Google) On Saturdays in July, Nagatoro is still crowded with tourists. We arrived at 1pm and waited in line outside! Only lunch is served at this time. After about 15 minutes, we went inside and sat down and purchased a meal ticket (you can also purchase it in advance). The miso katsudon was served pretty quickly! The katsu was thick and the miso sauce was delicious. Water was self-service. (Original) 7月土曜日長瀞は相変わらず観光客で賑わう。13時到着して外に並んで待つ！この時間はランチのみ提供。15分程度で中に入って着席後食券を購入（先に購入してもいい）。味噌カツ丼はけっこう早く提供！カツはぶ厚く味噌タレが美味しい。水セルフ。

(Translated by Google) Waraji katsudon, miso katsudon, miso fries, miso motsu stew The portions are generally a little small There's a lot of food to do around here Maybe it's good for women⭕️ My daughter ate it all up with ease! My husband and son didn't seem to be satisfied It's on the main tourist street, so the prices are a bit high But it was good because we wanted to eat all the Chichibu specialties at once♪ Everything was delicious! (Original) わらじかつ丼、味噌カツ丼 みそポテト 味噌もつ煮 全体的にやや少なめの盛り付け この周辺は食べ歩きもあるし 女性には良いかも⭕️ 娘も余裕でペロリ！ パパ、息子には物足りなさがあったみたいです 観光地のメイン通りですので、お値段はお高めかな けれど 秩父名物をまとめて食べたかったので良かったです♪ どれも美味しかったです！

(Translated by Google) The katsu curry was so good!! My companion ordered a katsudon and other dishes and said it was very delicious! The cats kept by the restaurant were super cute and the owner seemed like a very nice person! Thank you for giving us some konjac for free because the food was going to be delayed!! I'll definitely go there again if I go to Nagatoro! (Original) カツカレー美味しすぎ！！ 連れはカツ丼とか色んなの頼んでおり、とても美味しいと言ってました！ お店の方が飼ってる猫ちゃんも激カワで店主の方もすごく人柄が良さそうな方でした！ 食事の提供が遅れるからと言ってコンニャクもサービスしてくれてありがとうございました！！また長瀞に行ったら絶対行きます！

(Translated by Google) I bought miso fries for takeout. The service was rude and the fries were small and few in number. I recommend other stores for miso fries. (Original) テイクアウトで味噌ポテトを購入しました。 接客が雑でポテトも小さくて少ない。味噌ポテトに関しては他店をお勧めします。

(Translated by Google) November 8, 2020 (Sunday) I was told that I would be able to eat Matsutake Mushroom Gozen, so I made a reservation for 12:30 on Sunday as it was a complete reservation system, but I arrived early and arrived at 12:05, but they let me in right away. . Although the matsutake mushrooms were small, the matsutake rice and especially the steamed rice in a clay pot were delicious, and I enjoyed matsutake mushrooms for the first time in a while. The tempura is delicious with maitake mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and shishito peppers and matcha salt, and for 2,200 yen, I think it's worth it. (Original) 2020年11月8日(日)松茸御膳が食べられるということで、完全予約制の為、日曜日12時30分予約しましたが早めに付き12時05分着でしたがそのまま入れてもらえました。小振りの松茸でしたが、松茸ごはんや、特に土瓶蒸しが美味しく久々に松茸堪能でした。天ぷらも舞茸、椎茸、ししとうが抹茶塩で美味しいし、これで2,200円なら○じゃないでしょうか。

(Translated by Google) On my way back from Hodosan walking, I stopped by this restaurant located at the entrance of Hodosan Shrine, and Chichibu is a place that specializes in pork miso! Today's dish is grilled pork miso and it tastes delicious! Is it a little too rough? The rice and boiled sprouts are not strong enough, but overall it's good! I also wanted to pickle some shakushina (snow white cabbage) afterward... But after walking on the mountain trail, it's a nice reward, and the tea and water are self-service. if! If you're looking for a souvenir, I recommend pickled shakushina or walnut amanatto. Thank you for the meal.

(Translated by Google) After visiting Hodosan Shrine, I stopped by the restroom 🚻 and saw a nice-looking restaurant at the intersection, so I popped in ✨. There are table seats in the tatami room and in the back, but the back has the feel of a mountain hut-style restaurant in a summer resort. However, the tea was self-service in paper cups😅. I had decided to try the famous Waraji Katsudon when I arrived in Chichibu, so I ordered it without hesitation. When I opened the lid of the strangely fresh bowl, I found two pieces of waraji cutlet. It's a brown world with no cabbages or anything. It wasn't as oily as it looked and I ate it easily. It's right next to the shrine, so it's probably crowded in the summer. (Original) 宝登山神社に参詣後にトイレ🚻に立ち寄り、交差点先に何やら良さげな食事処があり飛び込みました✨。座敷と奥にはテーブル席がありますが、奥は何となく避暑地の山小屋風レストランって風情です。でもお茶は紙コップでセルフサービスでした😅。 秩父に着たら名物わらじカツ丼を食べようと決めてたので迷わずオーダー。何か妙に新鮮な丼の蓋を開けると、わらじカツが２枚。キャベツも何もなく茶色の世界です。見た目より油っぽくなくペロリと食べちゃいました😍。神社の直ぐ近くなので夏は混むんだろな。

(Translated by Google) It is located right below the parking lot of Hodosan Shrine, and I visited it after visiting the shrine. Here you can enjoy Chichibu's specialties. This time, I was having a hard time deciding between Waraji Katsudon and rice, but I decided on grilled pork miso. There were three large pieces of meat on top, the rice went well, and I was satisfied with the volume. There was enough seating inside the store to accommodate groups of customers. (Original) 宝登山神社の駐車場のすぐ下にあり、参拝後に訪れました。ここでは、秩父の名物がいただけます。今回、わらじかつ丼とで悩みましたが、炙り豚みそ重にしました。大きめな肉が３枚乗ってて、ごはんが進む味で、ボリューム的にも満足しました。店の中は団体客でも入れるくらい席がありました。

(Translated by Google) If you come here, I recommend Okkiri Komi Udon 😄 It has a very gentle taste. Waraji cutlet and grilled pork miso are both delicious, but... I think Okkiri Komi Udon is the most delicious. The seats are spacious and comfortable. (Original) ここにきたらおっきりこみうどんがオススメです😄 とても優しい味です。 わらじカツも炙り豚味噌もおいしいけど、、、 おっきりこみうどんが1番美味しいかな。 席も広くて落ち着きます。

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on my way back from Mt. Hodo. Grilled Pork Miso Ju ¥1,080 It was delicious. The kids said the Tenzaru Soba (¥1,080) was delicious. (Original) 宝登山の帰りに寄りました。 炙り豚みそ重 ¥1,080美味しかったです。 子供たちは天ざるそば ¥1,080美味しかったそうです。

(Translated by Google) It is located on the way from the Hodosan Ropeway to Nagatoro Station. I entered the store because of the limited number of 30 meals. You can relax in a calm atmosphere. A matsutake mushroom meal that you won't believe is only ¥2180. It smelled fine. (Original) 宝登山ロープウェイから長瀞駅にむかう途中にあります。限定３0食にひかれ入店。落ち着いた雰囲気でゆったりと頂けます。¥2180とは思えない松茸ご膳。ちゃんと香りがしました。

The lunar stone was great. It is an excellent place to hang out with family. The river is good! You can take a boat, but it closes at 3 p.m. We tried to ride a boat but could not reach it because it was closed at 3 p.m. If you miss the boat, you can still enjoy the riverside. Throwing the stone into the river can be fun and bring many laughs. Parking is about 400-500 yen per day. The entrance for the lunar festival is about 100 yen. It gets better at night; many local Japanese go there, but not many Westerners. The toilet is the worst in Japan! Dirty and full of garbage. The street is also narrow, so drive it slowly and carefully.

Nice place to enjoy ginko trees during autumn. There is also a cafe and adventure area to enjoy.

Plan for the trip properly as there are a number of attractions in this area. Coming just for the autumn 🍁 foliage may not be cost effective. There are few flaming reds but the scene was not breathtaking as of the visit on Nov 24, 2024.

The River views are amazing in the fall! But the park itself is a bit disappointing. Next time I’d like to ride the boat on the river

Need to visit there during Nov and you can see the beauty of red leaves at night with special lightings. Recommended couples to go but better to arrive between 6-8pm since it’s closed around 8pm but Sun set at 4:30pm.

Great place for "momiji", lots of color in one place, in the good weather you can get river, sky, mountain, and the maple trees view. Even though it's a little bit crowded but the park is quite big so everyone can get plenty space for taking photos.

beautiful park. Momiji trees were stunning. You can go down and see the nearby river and the people riding on wooden boats going down the river.

I rode the SL. it was very good.

This small town all tell stories of traditional Japanese summer styles without words.

Convenient station. There are free buses going up to the ropeway station.

Beautiful station. Many visitors stop by to watch the famous train!

Simple and old stylish station but it is great.

Good

The energy of river, rapids and gorge meets the platform here; the station hums with summer laughter, autumn leaves and hikers’ boots. You feel the world push forward but the train holds you still, poised between thrill and calm. Tourist Tip: From the station it's a short walk to the river-cruise boarding point or rock walk. Consider staying late for sunset over the gorge if your schedule allows.

Small gondola rope way that takes you to a nice scenic lookout and several hiking trails. 4/5 only because it’s a bit old and worn feeling but otherwise clean and the service was good. There’s a little eatery at the top with lunch items and ice cream. Stroller friendly to get up to the gondola and the immediate area at the top then becomes trails. Parking is 500 yen for the day.

A cute and scenic ride up to Hodosan. The station has free wifi, a rest spot with air conditioning, location stamps, and a small gift shop. There is a free shuttle bus going to and from the ropeway and Nagatoro station. The views from atop Hodosan are spectacular.

Nice and fast ropeway. I went to mount Hodo during the robai (wintersweet) and I highly recommend it! The pretty yellow flowers smell amazing. There was also an interesting monkey performance when we went. Also we bought delicious dried persimmons from the stall at the top.

Very nice scenic rope way. Sakura was in almost full bloom. The shrine is nice.

because it's Spring season..the top is so beautiful 😍

Loves lush of green view even in hot summer...

Hodosan ropeway is very close to the hodosan shrine. Ticket price is 830 yen(Return) for adults. you will get beautiful view of Chichibu mountain range and the city.

Good restaurant service vegetarian food. We like their vege tempura and fried yam

The food is really just Ok, the service is not so good (forgetting to give water, forgetting we were waiting for seats and giving it to others). The ladies are nice and the restaurant has a little old style.

(Translated by Google) If you order soba, you can eat the shaved ice they sell outside inside the store. The soba is chewy and delicious. Be careful, the two pieces of kakiage are quite filling. The prices were also reasonable considering it's in a tourist area. (Original) 蕎麦を頼めば　外で売っているかき氷を店内で食べさせて貰えました。蕎麦はコシがしっかりしており　うま〜い。かき揚げは2個が結構ボリュームあるので　要注意です。 観光地の割に値段も安かった。

(Translated by Google) Went there at 11am on a weekday. There were two other customers. Tatami seating and a large table. ・Tororo soba 950 yen ・Vegetable tempura 600 yen The soba was delicious. The broth was thick. I didn't need the tororo. The tempura was crispy and the spring onions were delicious. (June 20, 2025) (Original) 平日の11時に行く。先客2人。座敷席と大テーブル。 ・とろろそば950円 ・野菜のかき揚げ600円 そばは美味しい。つゆが濃い。とろろは要らなかった。 かき揚げはサクサクでネギが美味しい。 （2025年6月20日）

(Translated by Google) I visited this restaurant because I was told that their yam seaweed tempura is delicious. It was lunchtime and it was crowded, but there were shaded areas and benches to wait in, so it was fine even in the heat. I also had a large leek and carrot tempura, and my stomach was full. (Original) 山芋の磯辺揚げが美味しいと教えていただいて、伺いました。お昼時で混雑していましたが、待っている所は陰やベンチがあり、暑い中でも大丈夫です。大きなネギとにんじんのかき揚げもいただき、お腹いっぱいです。

(Translated by Google) It was lunchtime so I thought it might be crowded, but I was able to get in without any problems! It seems they didn't offer the soba noodle making experience, but the soba noodles and kakiage I had were delicious!! I want to go again!! I felt like I got a bargain when a steam locomotive passed right in front of me! (Original) 昼時だったので混んでるかなと思ったらすんなり入れました！蕎麦打ち体験はやってなかったようですが、お蕎麦とかき揚げを頂きおいしかったです！！また行きたい！！ 目の前をＳＬが通り得した気分になりました！

(Translated by Google) After going to see the moss phlox near Ohanabatake Station, I got off at Nagatoro Station and visited! I ordered Tororo Soba. Wow, the noodles were delicious, the soup was delicious, and the grated yam was delicious. And the signboard cat is too cute. I would like to visit you again! 2025.04 (Original) 御花畑駅の近くにある芝桜を観に行ったあと、長瀞駅で降りて伺いました！ とろろ蕎麦を注文。 もぉ、麺が美味しい、つゆがおいしい、とろろが美味しいで最高でした。 そして、看板猫ちゃんも可愛いすぎる。また伺いたいです！ 2025.04

yummy food and unlimited hot tea!! easy walk from the nagatoro station and right by the shrines. nagatoro was the highlight of my trip to japan. super friendly people and beautiful sites! there’s a cafe across the street that is also very good

Delicious Old Fashioned Style Japanese Udon with fresh veggies.

(Translated by Google) I had the Waraji Tonkatsudon. Although it was a katsudon with thin meat and a crispy batter, it had a light feel and was very delicious. It went well with the sauce and went well with rice. For men, the large portion might be just right. I went on a holiday around 2pm, but the restaurant was empty, the food came quickly and it was very comfortable. It was a hot day, but the air conditioning was working well, which was nice. The restaurant is spacious, so it seemed like you wouldn't have to wait too long to get in during peak hours. (Original) わらじとんかつ丼をいただきました。 薄めのお肉にサクサクの衣でかつ丼ではありますが、軽い感じで食べれてとても美味しかったです。 ソースとの相性もよくご飯が進みます。 男の人は大盛りの方がちょうどいいかもしれません。 休日の14時頃に行きましたが、店内は空いていて、料理も早くきてとても快適でした。 暑い日でしたが、空調も効いていてよかったです。 店内は広いですので、ピーク時にはそれほど待たずに入れそうな感覚でした。

(Translated by Google) I ordered a bento box while riding the SL Paleo Express. It's a mixed bento with waraji katsu and miso pork. It was cold when it was served, but both the katsu and miso pork were tender and delicious. The rice was soaked in the sauce, which made it a delicious meal on its own, and the side dishes of konjac and pickled Chinese cabbage really brought out the Chichibu flavor. If you're not satisfied, you can order miso fries from the station vendors. It's strange that they don't sell them inside the restaurant. I think they'd be popular if they offered takeout, even if it was by reservation. (Original) SLパレオエクスプレスの乗車時にお弁当を予約しました わらじカツとみそ豚が乗ってる合盛り弁当です 提供時には冷めていますが、カツもみそ豚も柔らかくて美味しい ご飯にタレが染みていて、それだけでも飯が進むし、副菜のこんにゃくとしゃくし菜漬けで秩父感がUPする 食べ足りない人は駅売などでみそポテトを追加しましょう 店内販売がないのが不思議 予約制でもいいからテイクアウト対応すれば人気になると思う

It was a light rainy day, and I felt like throwing on a jacket. There were no hot dishes prepared. The rice bowl was cold. The udon was cold. The tempura was cold. I washed it down with beer. (Original) 2025-10-20-11:35 20年以上参加している年に一度の「町内会バスツアー」のランチ。 これまでで最低の一食となった。 小雨模様、一枚羽織りたくなるこの日のランチ。 暖かい品が何も用意されていなかった。 丼、冷たい。 うどん、冷たい。 天ぷら、冷たい。 ビールで流し込みました。

(Translated by Google) When I went around lunchtime, there was a line of over 30 people. It was about an hour and a half? I killed time by checking out the nearby shrine and trick art. 🙆 Trick art is a mutual discount. 🈹 The food was delicious, and it was worth the wait. The stir-fried offal with miso was especially good (;;) 🩵 (Original) お昼頃行ったら30組以上待ち。1時間半くらい？待ちました。近くの神社やトリックアートで時間を潰せたので🙆トリックアートはお互いに割引されます🈹 お料理はとっても美味しくて、待った甲斐がありました。とくにモツの味噌炒め美味しかった（ ; ; ）🩵

(Translated by Google) The hormone set meal was sold out, but I got a pork bowl! It was filling and very satisfying! There was a line so I got a numbered ticket and waited for the phone to call before going in. (Original) ホルモン定食が売り切れでしたが豚丼をいただきました！ 食べ応えがあり満足です！ 並ぶので整理券をもらい電話待ちではいりました。

(Translated by Google) 2024.10 First visit Yesterday's lunch was near Kaminagatoro Station on the Chichibu Railway. This is my first visit to Mr. Uchida. The order is Tempori soba with seasonal vegetables and shrimp 1,900 yen A little expensive, tourist spot price? Large portions are not allowed, so please choose a regular portion. The soba noodles are smooth and delicious. Tempura crispy It is better to eat it soaked in motsuyu than matcha salt. I like it The shrimp were especially fluffy and delicious. Enjoy the rich soba soup at the end Gochi It was delicious (Original) 2024.10初訪問 昨日のランチは、秩父鉄道上長瀞駅近くの うちださんに御邪魔、初訪問です オーダーは 季節の野菜とエビの天もりそば　1900円 ちょっとお高め、観光地価格？ 大盛りは不可とのことで、普通盛りで お蕎麦は喉ごし良くウメエ 天ぷらサクサク 抹茶塩よりもつゆに漬けて食べる方が 好みだね エビが特に、ふわっとしていて美味しかったよ 最後は濃厚な蕎麦湯を楽しみ ゴチ 美味しかった

(Translated by Google) After arriving at 12:30 on a Saturday, I was able to get in after only a 10-minute wait. According to other reviews, you may have to wait around 30 minutes. I had the tempura cold soba, and the batter was crispy and the maitake mushroom tempura in particular was very flavorful and delicious. The soba noodles also had a chewy texture that was just how I liked it. The staff were all very friendly, and I had a pleasant time, so I would definitely like to stop by again next time. (Original) 土曜日の12:30に到着後、10分程度の待ち時間で入れました。 他の方の口コミによると、30分くらい待つ場合もあるみたいです。 天ざるそばをいただきましたが、衣がサクサクで特に舞茸の天ぷらが風味もよくとても美味しかったです。 そばもコシが強く歯ごたえがあり好みの喉越しでした。 店員さんも感じの良い方ばかりで快適な時間を過ごすことができましたので、次回も立ち寄りたいお店です。

(Translated by Google) Walnut soba! The slightly thick soba noodles have a firm texture. Walnut juice that can't be beat. Although the soy sauce is strong, it balances well with the soba. (Original) くるみそば！ やや太めの蕎麦は歯応えしっかり。 それに負けないくるみ汁。 醤油強めですがそばとのバランス良いです。

(Translated by Google) I drove there, but it's within sight of the nearest station and seems to be popular with locals! I had walnut soba in Nagatoro before and didn't think it was very tasty, but when I tried it again at this restaurant, it was so delicious that it completely changed my opinion of it. I also recommend the tempura! (Original) 車利用でしたが、最寄駅から見える距離で、地元の人にも人気のようです！以前長瀞でくるみそばを食べて、旨味を感じなかったけど、このお店で再チャレンジした所、とても美味しく、印象が変りました。 天ぷらもお勧めです！

(Translated by Google) If I get hungry on the way from my dad's hometown in Yorii to get some negitoro, I'll stop by Sobadokoro Uchida. It's as crowded as ever, but the food is so delicious I forget all about it. 😋 I recommend the walnut soba, but I always get two, so I go for the duck nanban soba. I guess good things will continue. Instead of negitoro, I headed back to Nagatoro Station by train, and lo and behold, the once-a-day steam locomotive 🚂 was just about to blow its whistle as it departed. 🚂☺ This kind of luck is impressive, as you'd expect from me. So, everyone, have a great trip to Nagatoro! ️👋 (Original) 寄居の親父の実家からネギトロ迄行く途中でお腹空けば行くとこはここ「そば処 うちだ」相変わらず混んでるけど食べたらその苦労も忘れる美味さ😋お勧めは「くるみ蕎麦」ですけど僕はいつも2つ食べるので鴨南蕎麦。良い事は続くかな。ネギトロではなく長瀞駅に電車で戻るとなななんと1日１回のSL🚂が汽笛を鳴らして出るとこでした🚂☺ この運の強さは流石僕です。そういう事で皆さんも長瀞に行ってらっしゃい‼️👋

(Translated by Google) I stopped by for lunch on a drive. It's so close that you can see it from Kaminagatoro Station, and there's a parking lot for about 10 cars, so it's easy to get to by train or car. The inside of the store is spacious and has table seats, counter seats, and tatami seats. The restroom is also spacious and has handrails, so it seems easy for people in wheelchairs and with children to use it. Before the soba noodles came out, we first had miso oden. The piping hot konjac and rich miso are sure to be delicious! I regret coming by car. You'll want to have a drink. I had the soba noodles served in a tempura sauce and an additional walnut soup. Soba noodles are whitish and fragrant. The walnut soup is not a mushy type, but is smooth and full of walnut flavor and aroma. The lemon that comes with it does a nice job. This is delicious! Enjoy the luxury of having soba noodles with walnut soup and tempura with soba soup. They also had shaved ice, so I wanted to come and eat it on a hot day. Please note that payment is only in cash and electronic money cannot be used. (As of September 2023) (Original) ドライブのお昼ごはんにと寄らせていただきました。 上長瀞駅から見えるくらい近くにあり、駐車場も10台分ぐらいあるので電車でも車でも行きやすいですね。 店内はスペースが広々していてテーブル席、カウンター席、畳敷き席それぞれあります。 トイレも広くて手すりもあるので、車椅子やお子様連れの方も利用しやすそうでした。 お蕎麦が出てくるまでの間にまずみそおでんをいただきました。 熱々のこんにゃくにコクのある味噌で間違いない美味しさ！車で来たことが悔やまれます。一杯飲みたくなってしまいます。 おそばは天ざるに、追加でくるみのつゆをつけてもらいました。 白っぽくて、香りのよいおそば。 くるみのつゆはドロドロのタイプではなくサラッとしていて、くるみの味と香りたっぷりで 添えられているレモンがいい仕事してくれてます。これは美味しい！ おそばをくるみつゆでいただき、天ぷらをそばつゆでいただく贅沢。 かき氷もあったので、暑い日には食べにきたいと思いました。 お支払いは現金のみで電子マネー等使えないのでそこだけご注意を。（2023年9月現在）

(Translated by Google) The soba was crisp and chilled, and when I ate it, I could taste the subtle flavor of the soba. The tempura had a light, crispy batter and was very delicious. The interior of the restaurant was clean, and the female staff worked efficiently. (Original) お蕎麦はきりっと冷え、食べるとほのかに蕎麦の風味が感じられました。天ぷらは衣が軽くさくさくとした食感で、とても美味しかったです。 店内も綺麗で、女性のスタッフがきびきびと働いていらっしゃいました。

ANIMAL CRUELTY!!!!!!!! DONT GO HERE!!!! Only go here if you want to cry from sadness at how badly the animals are treated here. The sheep was STARVED, the fox was depressed, the turtle was DEAD, the rabbits were confined to tiny cages and one of them had NO WATER IN 35 DEGREE HEAT!!! The monkeys had no trees and had metal poles to play with that burnt their feet because of the heat. There is no enrichment for the animals. They are all sad and depressed, locked in a tiny cage. Some of them exhibited severe neurological damage due to the confinement - walking around in circles and pacing nonstop. This is so heartbreaking. SHAME ON THIS PLACE!!! It should be shut down immediately!!!

It's fun but... Cages are dirty, not enough green inside the cages. I felt bad for the animals (but this might just be me). Staff are very nice, price is very good. I would actually be okay to pay more. I also liked feeding the animals! I'm not sure but I think this zoo has rescue animals and that's great.

You can pet the rabbits and goats in this mini zoo but the places where the other animals lived were dirty and seems the staffs didn’t take care of them such as cleaning their stables and cages! The entrance fee is quite expensive as well!

It was very upsetting to visit this zoo and I don't recommend bringing sensitive children here. One of mine cried when she saw the condition of the animals, particularly the three legged deer (pictured) who is on its own and can do nothing but sit or stand. Some of the Japanese monkeys fought constantly and some, including a baby, had scars and/or fresh bloody wounds. Many of the rabbits have eye infections. It was a really horrendous experience. However, the young staff we talked to were very nice and I hope they can work to make the zoo a better place for the animals. Also, they have signs up to say they are improving some of the enclosures. And I give it two stars instead of one with the hope that the animals came to the zoo injured and that their injuries aren't from lack of care. With the Japanese monkeys who had fresh bloody wounds: maybe this happens in the wild too?

This is a cute zoo that is normal for Japanese standards, but quite upsetting for Westerners. The animal enclosures were small and dirty. The giant tortoises were kept on cobblestones with barely any space. There is a fox near the middle who looks to be neglected and constantly looking for people to interact with. The monkeys were fighting all the time, with baby monkeys and adults getting into conflict. If you believe in animal rights, do not visit. If you are looking for a place to gape and gawk at monkeys fighting, make the hike to Hodosan Zoo.

my 1st time here.. & I enjoyed 😉

The most depressing zoo I have ever visited in my life. Pens are mostly mud and cobblestone with no grass, animals look sick and filthy (damaged feathers, discolored fur, eye infections, a deer was missing a hoof), a tortoise had such a tiny cobblestone enclosure it could barely turn and there was no drinking water.

A colorful shrine, mountain hiking, richly flavored mushroom soup (at the entrance to the cable car), and a cable car ride to the top to see the plum blossoms. This early in the season (end of February) it’s mainly the yellow plum blossoms, but by mid-March the pink, red, and white blossoms should be in full bloom. Have a bowl of fresh mushroom soup before riding the cable car and if you’re still hungry there is charcoal roasted ayu (a river fish similar to trout). Or, wait till you get to the top of the mountain and have a bowl of soba, udon, or ramen. Access by car (about 90 minutes north of Tokyo in Saitama Prefecture) or by train (free shuttle from the train station to the cable car base). Makes for a nice day trip, plenty of outdoor open space, and if you have youngsters they’ll enjoy the cable car ride).

Enjoying the quick mountain trekking at the Mt. Hodo in Nagatoro area. It was so good to have the curry lunch in the Trangia messtins. It was amazing to see the autumn colors on the surface of hot coffee and the winter cherry blossom.

Lots of steps to get there, but the view from the mountain is worth the effort. Marvelous!

Nice view and clean air.

Quick & easy hike!!

No hiking track, be very careful. It's just a road going through a country club. The scenery is littered with power lines and ugly mountains that have had their trees cut down.

Visit in late Jan to early Feb to catch the Wintersweet Festival.

(Translated by Google) I think that if you go to a rest house on an empty stomach, there will be something missing. You can drink canned beer. I think you can enjoy the small zoo as it is just the right size. (Original) レストハウスは腹ペコで行くと物足りなさがあると思います。缶ビール飲めます。小動物園もちょうどいい広さで楽しめると思います。

(Translated by Google) I used it with my family on the first day of Golden Week. It was very empty, so I was able to eat slowly without worrying about crowds. Both the soba noodles and miso potatoes were delicious. (Original) ゴールデンウィーク初日に家族で利用しました。とても空いていて、密の心配をすることもなくゆっくり食べられました。お蕎麦もみそポテトも普通に美味しかったです。

(Translated by Google) The ropeway itself seems old, but I think it's a good ride as children will enjoy it. However, if you go to Mt. Hodo for sightseeing, there is nothing interesting about it. I went to the entrance of the small zoo, but I didn't feel like paying to see it... (Original) ロープウェー自体は古い感じですが､乗り物として子供が喜ぶのでいいと思います。 ですが宝登山自体が観光で行くなら面白味が全くないです。 小動物園は入口まで行きましたが､お金を払ってまで見る感は無かったです……。

(Translated by Google) The first time I visited was in 2001 or 2002. At the time, my eldest son was in kindergarten. My second son is in my stomach. Visited this year with my family. My eldest son is a high school student. My second son is a junior high school student. Of course, I don't remember my eldest son crying at the time. It's a fun family gathering that you can prove by watching the video. (Original) 初めて訪問したのが、2001年か2002年。当時、長男は幼稚園前。次男はお腹の中。今年家族で訪問。長男は高校生。次男は中学生。当時泣いていた長男、無論記憶には無く。ビデオ観賞で証明しつつ、楽しい家族の団らん。

(Translated by Google) Plenty of volume! The customer service from a homely mother was excellent. says my wife. (Original) ボリュームたっぷり！ 家庭的なお母さんの接客最高でした。 と妻が言ってます。

(Translated by Google) There are many items and they are cheap. It's not like I ate it all. It looked delicious. (Original) 品数もあり、安い。全部食べた訳じゃないので。おいしそうでした。

A good place to go if you are into the history of Nagatoro. Entry fee is 200yen. The display area of the tools the people used and the history and geography of the area were interesting. The house itself is just so-so.

There is a flower field near the museum. Good for having a seat and relax. Walking up a bit further to Mt.Hodosan and the jinja.

(Translated by Google) It was built in the Edo period, and its distinctive feature is its shingled roof. Please stop by. (Original) 江戸時代に建てられたもので特徴は板葺の屋根だそうです。是非お立ち寄りを。

(Translated by Google) If you want to learn more about Nagatoro, please stop by. You can also see medieval tablets. The stone monument in our town (Machida) also uses stones from Mt. Chichibu. The residence of the headman from the Edo period still remains. There is a stylish sake brewery adjacent to it. You can also see peaceful scenery. (Original) 長瀞を勉強したい人は、ちょっと寄ってみてください。中世の板碑も見れます。わが町（町田）にある板碑も秩父山の石を使っています。江戸時代の名主の住宅も残っています。 隣接しておしゃれな酒蔵があります。また、のどかな風景も見れます。

(Translated by Google) Visited on March 24, 2023. A farmhouse from about 250 years ago with a shingle roof? Or cedar bark? The stone on top is impressive, and there is only one tatami room, and the rest is a board room. The floor plan is simple, there is no privacy at all, and the bathroom is exposed. It is interesting to think about the lifestyle and consciousness of those days. (Original) 2023年3月24日訪問。約２５０年まえの農家、屋根の板葺き？あるいは杉皮？上に石を載せてあるのが印象的、畳の部屋は一間だけ、あとは板の間。 シンプルな間取り、プライバシーは全く無い、おまけに風呂はむき出し。 当時の生活感、意識を考えると興味深い。

(Translated by Google) The building of an old sericulture farm was relocated from near the town hall, and although it had been renovated twice, it is displayed almost in its original form. (It seems that high windows were added after the renovation) It has a very old-fashioned appearance, with a shingle roof covered with stones. It is possible to take a stroll around the building except for the Okunodee (Okuma) and the second floor. Although the roofs and scales are different, I felt that there were many places with similar structures, such as the chaya Honjin near Gunma Yokogawa, where there was a stable inside the house and the location of the bath. From the deck, you can see the bamboo forest outside, which gives it a nice atmosphere. (Original) 昔の養蚕農家の建物を役場近くから移設し、二回ほど改築されていたが、ほぼ原型に戻したかたちで展示されている。(改築後は高窓が付いていたようだ) 板葺屋根に石で押さえるというなかなかに古風な佇まいである。 おくのでえ(奥間)と2階以外は散策見学が可能である。 屋根まわりや規模は違うが、群馬横川近くの茶屋本陣のように家内に厩屋が有るところや、風呂の場所等似ているつくりの箇所が多いと感じた。 でえからは外の竹林を見ることが出来て風情が有る。

(Translated by Google) This silkworm farming house, common in the Chichibu region, is estimated to have been built 280 years ago, as many prayer tablets from Mitsumine Shrine remain. It was moved to this area, but has been faithfully restored to its original appearance. Wooden roofs were common in the Chichibu region, along with thatched roofs, but today it seems to be the only one left of the former Arai family home. The kitchen floor, made of matting, is also magnificent. Why not stop by Hodosan Shrine as well? The view of the hills to the south is also nice. (Original) 三峯神社の祈祷札が多数残っていることから、今から280年前の建設と予想される秩父地方に多く見られる養蚕農家住宅。この地に移築されましたが建設当初の姿にしっかりと復元されています。 板葺の屋根は秩父地方では茅葺屋根と共に多く みられましたが現在は旧新井家だけのようです。むしろを引いて叩いたでえどこ(台所）の床 も見事。 宝登山神社と合わせて立ち寄ってみては如何でしょうか？南側の丘の景色もいいですよ。

Small colorful flower garden. Nice to see, hwhen there

Visited this place on Monday, May 26th 2025, around noon time. It was cloudy and cool. Nice place to stroll, walk your dog, enjoy the fresh air and beautiful flowers. There are garden benches where you can sit, enjoy the view, or take pictures. Two years ago I came here when it was sunny. A nice old man taught me where and how to take good pictures. He was a professional photographer and he volunteered to help visitors enjoy this flower garden. The entrance ticket is 300 yen. It was a nice place to sit and enjoy the fresh air.

Good view. It’s not huge. But I liked it.

(Translated by Google) I had been interested in this place for a while, so I went to see it the other day. At first, the garden was larger than I expected, and part of the way through, the ground became uneven, so it may be a bit difficult for wheelchair users. (Personally, it felt like walking through a field.) I think that sneakers are less likely to get dirty and less likely to get injured than high heels. The paths in the garden are wide enough for two people, so I think it's fine to move around in a single line. From here on, I will give my impressions. Personally, I felt that the place's pros and cons depend on the weather and the number of tourists. I thought that the best time to visit is when there are relatively few tourists and the weather is stable. And the fields of poppies blooming all over the place are very beautiful and it's a very relaxing place. Sit on a bench with a cup of coffee and relax while the cool breeze blows. Or, you can spend a blissful time walking around the garden admiring the flowers with your family or partner. The parking lot is large, and it is easy to access by car or on foot. (Original) 以前から気になっていた場所だったため、先日観光させていただきました。 初めに園内は思っていた以上に広く、途中から凸凹した土の上を歩くため、車椅子の方などは少々厳しいかもしれません。(個人的に畑を歩いている感覚でした。) 靴はハイヒールよりも運動靴のほうが汚れにくく、怪我をしにくいと思います。 園内の通路は2人分の広さが確保されており、1列で動く分には問題ないかと思います。 ここからは感想となります。 個人的に天候や観光人数といった状況で良し悪しが左右される場所だと感じました。 比較的観光する人が少なく、天候が安定している時が1番観光しやすいタイミングだと思いました。 そして一面に咲くハナビシソウはとても美観でかなり落ち着きやすい場所です。 コーヒー片手にベンチに座り涼しい風に吹かれながらリラックスする。 または、家族や恋人と共に花を眺めながら園内を歩くという至福のひとときを過ごせます。 駐車場も広く、車、徒歩共にアクセスしやすい場所です。

(Translated by Google) I went there on June 30, 2025. I was looking for Annabelle flowers nearby and found this place. I had come here to see the Chinese fireweed, but I had never heard of Annabelle flowers. There is a sign on the way to the Hodo Mountain approach. The entrance to the parking lot is small, but the parking lot inside is large. A contribution of 300 yen. The garden is beautiful, with a view down from the entrance. The garden is not very large, but it was quite beautiful. There were also a few Chinese fireweeds blooming 👍 It felt like the best time to see them had passed, and I wondered how many more days it would last. (Original) 2025年6月30日に行きました。近場でアナベル目当てで探すとこちらがハナビソウは見に来たことはあったけど アナベルは知らなかったです。宝登山参道の途中 P 案内看板あり 駐車場入り口は狭いけど中の駐車場は広め 協力金300円 入り口から下に見下ろせる園内 綺麗 園内それほど広くありませんがなかなか綺麗でした。ちらほら咲いてるハナビソウも👍見頃は終わっちゃった感があり 終わりは後何日かなって感じでした。

(Translated by Google) Parking is free, but there is a 300 yen contribution per person. You can see a fairly large and well-maintained flower field. You can also go to Hodosan Shrine, the ropeway, and the Nagatoro Line boat ride within walking distance, so you can enjoy a relaxing day here. (Original) 駐車場は無料ですが協力金1人300円かかります。中々の広さで良く手入れされている花畑を見ることが出来ます。徒歩圏内に宝登山神社とロープウェイ、長瀞ライン下りも行く事が出来るので一日ゆっくり楽しめました。

(Translated by Google) 2025/06/15 It was a little early for Annabelle, but the green was beautiful. A donation of 300 yen per person is required for admission. (Original) 2025/06/15 アナベルは少し早かったけれど、グリーンが綺麗でした。 入場には寄付として1人300円が必要です。

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Although we did not speak much Japanese, we were able to book a ticket for the boat ride. A bus transfer was included to bring you to the departure point for the boat ride. We visited during winter the tourist center told us that this was the only operator opened during the low season. The boat is well equipped with a kotatsu (炬燵) and it made the ride very comfortable. The boatman expertly navigated the boat in the rocky waters. A few times, it looked like we narrowly escaped collision with a large rock, but trust the boatmen. They knew what they were doing. One of them provided a live commentary along the way. Although I couldn't understand a word, the ride was still very enjoyable nevertheless.

Friendly management and friendly tourists, we had a thrilling trip to nagataro and Saitama ken bushes during year 2002. Short yet wonderful boat ride. Round white stones and extremely cold water, what a lovely feel. In the midst of a thick forest, it was nice to avail services of crossing in relatively rough river.

This place is beautiful but only in spring and autumn!! Summer is really hot and no many activities to do here. I visited in summer found nothing interesting and too long from tokyo. Views are good on the way.

Perhaps the most exciting activity in the area, this 'Line Kudari' (river cruise) takes you down the Arakawa River on a wooden boat. It only lasts about 20 minutes and the rapids are not that hair-raising, but it's super fun with exquisite scenery.

Free parking is available so you don't need to use the other paid parking.

Great tourist attractions in summer. FYI: cash only.

Beautiful place to pass the leisure time.

A very pleasant surprise. They only serve one thing here in 3 difference sizes: S, M, L Miso bbq pork slice bowls. Every set comes with pickles and soup. Great to scarf down after rafting! They don’t have seating for more than 4 ppl so if you have a big party, you either sit separately or get lucky and have two 4 seater tables nearby. Cash only.

good place to have grilled pork.

we ate here yesterday and wait a little longer because there is a lot of people eating in this place and the space is small. the food is excellent the pork is very tasty. The one thing that i dont want is the service in here. they will call the number and you have to go in front to get your food. My friend have two orders. One for her and the other is for my sister. She came back holding one order of food. And she said that someone says to her that she only have one order but she’s holding a two ticket. and my sister talk to that old lady and the lady said that there is a mistake someone’s got the food. and it is the two lady beside us. this is so unrespectful because they get the food from the lady who is starting eating. and give to my friend and she start eating and came back if she wants to heat again the food. My god. it is automatic to replace the food it is not hard because there is only one menu in here. That is very rude for me.

Beautiful

super tasty!!!

Bad service

(Translated by Google) I had lunch at Yurin, a pork miso bowl specialty restaurant in Nagatoro. After researching, I found out it's run by the Chichibu Railway. I arrived just before 11:00 and there were about 10 customers ahead of me. There were many customers after me. There were also a few foreign tourists. Parking: There's a dedicated parking lot behind the restaurant. They offer three types of pork miso bowls. They vary in meat amount and bowl size: large (4 pieces), regular (3 pieces), and small (2 pieces). This time, I ordered three regular pieces. My number was called about 10 minutes later, and the bowl arrived. The meat was delicious pork loin, I think. The sauce was tasty. It went down so well with rice. It was a meal in no time (lol). The miso soup was also delicious. Thank you for the meal! (Original) 長瀞の豚みそ丼専門店の有隣さんでランチです 調べてみると秩父鉄道が運営してるみたいです 11時少し前の到着で先客は10名前後で 後客は多数でした 外国人の観光客もチラホラ居ました 駐車場情報:店舗裏に専用駐車場があります 豚みそ丼は全部で3種類 肉量と丼の大きさ違いで大盛肉4枚、 並盛肉3枚、小盛肉2枚 今回は並盛肉3枚をオーダー 約10分で番号が呼ばれて着丼です お肉は美味しい豚ロースかな〜 タレの味も良く ご飯が進む味わいです あっと言う間にゴチでした(笑) 味噌汁も美味しかったです ごちそうさまでした☆

(Translated by Google) When I went to the store after 11 o'clock on a Saturday, it was still empty and there were only a few people in the store, so I was able to get in right away. While we were eating, the number of customers increased rapidly, and by the time we left the restaurant, there were people waiting. The soba itself is very delicious, but the voluminous tempura was amazing, including the taste of the ingredients. My husband and I ordered vegetable tempura and maitake mushroom tempura and shared the tempura, but we managed to eat all of them. At first, I thought the soba noodles were a bit small, but once I finished eating, I was satisfied with the amount. Inside the store, an N gauge diorama depicting Nagatoro Station and the Chichibu Railway is on display. (Original) 土曜日の１１時過ぎにお店に行くと、まだ空いていて店内に数組と云うことですぐに入店できました。食事中にどんどんお客が増えて、お店を出る頃には待ち客が居る状況でした。お蕎麦自体もとても美味しいのですが、ボリューム満点の天ぷらは素材の味を含めて素晴らしかったです。夫婦で野菜天ざると舞茸天ざるを注文して天ぷらをシェアしましたが、なんとか食べ切った感じです。最初はお蕎麦が少なめだなと思っていましたが、食べ終わると納得の分量でした。店内には長瀞駅と秩父鉄道をイメージしたNゲージのジオラマが展示されています。

This is a great noodle restaurant (Soba and Udon) that really sets the mood for the Nagatoro tourism area. We ordered cold soba with their tempura set. We received a mountain of tempura including shrimp, daikon, ginger (!), renkon, carrot, mountain herbs, potato, sweet potato, and more. There's regular seating as well as tatami seating.

(Translated by Google) We went as a group and ate at a table in the garden. We had soba noodles and tempura. The soba noodles were cooked just right and the tempura was crispy and delicious. There are many soba restaurants in front of Nagatoro Station, so I feel like I'd like to try a few of them. (Original) グループで行き庭のテーブル食べました。もりそばと天ぷらを食べました。蕎麦の茹で加減が良く天ぷらもカラッと揚げて有り美味しかった。 長瀞駅前には蕎麦屋さんが沢山有りますので色々行ってみたい感じがする。

(Translated by Google) The amount of soba noodles was a little small, but the taste was average. I ordered vegetable tempura, and as rumored, the amount was large, with a variety of vegetables including ginger, tomato, eggplant, okra, zucchini, radish, carrot, shiso, sweet potato, pumpkin, bitter melon, bok choy, and potato, which I enjoyed. The potatoes were a little cold, but... (Original) 蕎麦の量は少し少なめ、味は普通。野菜天ぷら付きにしましたが、噂通り、量は多く、生姜、トマト、ナス、オクラ、ズッキーニ、大根、人参、しそ、さつまいも、かぼちゃ、苦瓜、チンゲンサイ、ジャガイモなどいろいろな野菜があり、楽しく頂きました。芋類などがちょっと冷めてたかと

(Translated by Google) A soba restaurant in Nagatoro. A restaurant with 3 tatami tables, 5 counter seats, and 5 table seats. Located about 30 seconds walk from Nagatoro Station. When you are seated, they serve you soba candy. Tempura is fried after an order is placed. The Tempura Soba (1,600 yen) has a large amount of tempura. Tempura is made with various vegetables and wild plants. It's best to order tempura soba and share the tempura. If you can't finish it all, you can take it home. They also provide containers. (Original) 長瀞のお蕎麦屋さん。座敷3テーブル、カウンター5席、テーブル席5席のお店。 長瀞駅から徒歩30秒くらいの立地。 席に通されるとそばかりんとうを出してくれる。天ぷらは注文が入ってから揚げている。 天ぷらそば(1,600円)の天ぷらは量が多い。様々な野菜や山菜が天ぷらになっている。 天ぷらそばを頼んで天ぷらはシェアして食べるとちょうど良い。食べきれない場合は持ち帰ることも可能。容器も用意してくれている。

(Translated by Google) We ordered tempura soba and mori soba. The tempura was just the right amount for two people to share. So the soba felt a little small. But we had other things to eat while we were walking around so it turned out to be just right! The staff were all very friendly and were very accommodating even to families with children! It was open at 11am on a weekday so we were able to get in without having to wait. There are many different types of tempura to enjoy, but there were also some vegetables that you wouldn't know were there just by looking, which made it even more enjoyable in its own way! (Original) 天ぷらそばともりそばを頼みました。 2人で天ぷらを分けてちょうどいい量でした。 なのでそばは少なく感じました。 でも他の食べ歩きもあるし結果ちょうどよかったです！ 店員さんはみんな感じよく、子連れでも優しく対応してくれました！ 平日11時代なので待ちなく入れました。 天ぷらは色々種類があって楽しめますが、見た目ではわからない野菜もあるのである意味楽しめました！

(Translated by Google) Nagatoro station rotary? parking? This is a popular store located at the entrance of There is also a large parking lot behind this store (advance payment required, cash and coins only, 500 yen per day on weekdays), which you can use for sightseeing. The soba noodles are also delicious! ...But perhaps it's for women, the portions aren't large, and a large portion takes about 6 minutes. However, the tempura platter is fun and delicious! There are many types and quantities! (One platter of tempura is just enough for two couples.) You'll have to wait in line for about 15 minutes, but please give it a try. (Original) 長瀞駅ロータリー？駐車場？の入口にある、人気店です この店の裏にも大きめ駐車場（前払い制・現金硬貨のみ・平日１日５００円）があり、観光にも使えますよー お蕎麦もウマい！……が、女性向きなのか量は多くなく、大盛りでハラ６分 でも、天ぷら盛り合わせが楽しいし美味しい！多種類で、量もあり！（夫婦２人で１つの天ぷら盛りがちょうどヨイ） １５分位並んで待ちますが、食べてみてくださいねぇ

Fantastic miso potato, so fresh and crunchy. The udon noodles were gorgeous! One of the only places open for lunch when I went, but I was so glad this was the place that was open because they really do have delicious, wholesome food.

Very delicious nabe udon! The food felt very wholesome. It was a bit chilly today during the wintersweet festival so it was really nice to have a warm bowl of nabe udon. The noodles were delicious and I felt warmed from the inside out. I highly recommend this place.

We love this place! The food is yummy, the family who run it are kind and there are toys for kids! It is up a steep flight of stairs so you’ll have to carry your stroller up if you brought one, but our little ones like to run around on the tatami area and it’s kind on the budget, too.

Second visit after 7 years all is same always best place

Great traditional local Soba and Tempura spot

Nice fresh noodles, big portion sizes too.

(Translated by Google) It's about a 3-minute walk from Nagatoro Station. I visited on a weekend afternoon and skipped the line! It's located along the road leading from the station to Hodosan Shrine. Recommendations: ✽Soba noodles / Near Hodosan Shrine / Large seating available ✽With friends / With family / Alone ⁡ Menu: ✽Summer Tempura Zaru (Small portion) ¥1,100 The tempura zaru comes with a tempura platter, their specialty miso potatoes, and warabi mochi. This is such a great deal...! The crispy batter on the tempura is irresistible. They also had the rare tomato tempura, which I was happy about ♡ I also got to try their specialty miso potatoes, and the soba was delicious. Recommended for when you want to eat at Nagatoro Station. If you're interested, be sure to check it out! (Original) 長瀞駅より徒歩3分ほど。 土日のお昼過ぎに訪れ、並ばずに入れました！ 駅から宝登山神社へ行く通り沿いにあります。 ・・・おすすめポイント・・・ ✽そば / 宝登山神社近く / 大人数の席あり ✽お友達と / ご家族で / おひとりで ⁡ ・・・メニュー・・・ ✽夏天ざる 小盛　1,100円 天ざるは天ぷらの盛り合わせと、名物のみそポテトやわらび餅がセットになっています。 これはお得すぎる...！ 天ぷらはサックサクの衣がたまらない。 珍しいトマトの天ぷらもあって、嬉しかった♡ 名物のみそポテトも味わえたし、お蕎麦美味しかったなぁ。 長瀞駅でご飯を食べたい時におすすめ。 気になる方は、ぜひ行ってみてください〜！

Ordered warajikatsu-don with miso potato, konjac, and shaved ice. The warajikatsu WAS SUPERB. It was soft, crunchy, and a little bit salty (the feeling was different from tonkatsu). If you are a huge eater, I suggest you order a big portion of rice since the rice medium portion is quite small.. imo. Miso potato and konjac was really good for side dish, and the shaved ice was spectacular. I have never eaten a shaved ice like this before, it is really different from the usual shaved ice that you see often during summer festival. 100 points!!

The cutlet and the grilled pork slices are both immensely good. The grilled pork is tender and has a tantalising smoky flavour. The miso pork cutlet is fried to perfectly has a subtle miso flavour. We also tried one of their desserts which is shavings of frozen strawberries with condensed milk, love this creative dessert. Price is also reasonable. Because of low manpower. You can come in and seat yourself and order from the tablet on your table. Your food will be served by a delivery robot and you can also subsequently checked yourself out at the checked out machine by scanning the code on your receipt. The food is a must try. And there isn't a lot of options in nagotoro at night. So finding this place is a god sent.

Excellent miso pork and grilled steak. Just that the miso soup is too salty. Great mountain view here but prepare to wait. Self order and self payment. English menu available.

Famous for the roasted pork bowl (Buta don). The pork is very juicy and soft. The volume is not that big, but the price is reasonable for its deliciousness. I also recommend you order Miso Potato which is one of the famous dish in Nagatoro. There are indoor tables and terrace tables. Please order from the ticket vending machine located inside the restaurant and wait until they call out your number which is written on your order ticket.

I just visited this place for lunch. Credit card is accepted and buta miso is recommended

Great family friendly place to eat. The furnishings are very comfortable. The marinated pork is a wonderful dish, so full of flavour. Beef and chicken is also very good.

Strategic location, clean, delicious, and fair price.
