- [Karuizawa](https://travel.japanvoyage.jp/travel_destinations/karuizawa): Nagano, Region. A highland resort town in eastern Nagano known for cool summers, outlet shopping, and nearby waterfalls.
- [Akiyamago](https://travel.japanvoyage.jp/travel_destinations/akiyamago): Nagano, Region. Thirteen hamlets strung about 20 km along the Nakatsu River gorge, five in Sakae village (Nagano) and eight in Tsunan town (Niigata), with a Heike refugee legend and a riverbed at Kiriake where hot water seeps up and you dig your own bath. No train comes near; the last stretch is a shared taxi you book the day before.
