Company info

My name is Yuma Fujie. I run the Japanese-style Guesthouse with hot spring ("Onsen") in Norikura Highland. I love nature very much and I'm one of the official nature guide of Japan Mountain Guides Association. The reason I run the guesthouse in Norikura highland is because I hope to connect people to great nature. I'd like to support your travel, so aside from providing you with a place to sleep and relax, let me hear your needs and the things you want to do, so that I can propose places and activities and the means of transportation just for you. I recommend you to stay in Norikura Kogen for a few days or weeks to enjoy the place and to relax in the Onsen. I look forward to seeing you in my guesthouse!!
