Matsumoto to Nagoya: Private Kiso & Nakasendo Adventure

Turn your travel day from Matsumoto to Nagoya into a private Kiso Valley adventure with turquoise gorges, waterfalls, historic Magome, and a walk along the ancient Nakasendo.
Turn your travel day from Matsumoto toward Nagoya into a private adventure through the beautiful Kiso Valley.

Your day begins with pickup from your accommodation in Matsumoto before heading into the mountains for a private guided experience through one of central Japan's most beautiful historic regions.

Our first adventure takes us into Kakizore Gorge, a beautiful valley known for its clear turquoise water, forest scenery, suspension bridge, deep pools, and waterfalls. Follow a short walking trail through the gorge to Ushigataki Falls, with plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and take photos.

From the gorge, continue through the Kiso Valley to Magome-juku, one of the best-preserved post towns along the historic Nakasendo. Walk the sloping stone streets lined with traditional buildings and discover how travelers moved through the mountains between Kyoto and Edo centuries ago. Continue uphill to a viewpoint overlooking the surrounding mountains before returning through the old town.

Next, experience the Nakasendo itself without committing to the entire Magome-to-Tsumago hike. Visit the forested section around the beautiful Odaki and Medaki waterfalls and enjoy a shorter walk along the historic route. This gives you a taste of the ancient trail while leaving time to experience several different sides of the Kiso Valley in one day.

Throughout the experience, the pace is private and relaxed. Stop for photographs, spend more time somewhere you love, or adjust the amount of walking to suit your group.

The guided experience concludes at Nagiso Station, conveniently located for guests continuing their journey toward Nagoya by train.

Instead of spending your travel day simply moving between destinations, experience mountain gorges, waterfalls, historic villages, forest trails, and the story of the Nakasendo along the way.

One travel day. One private adventure. A completely different way to experience central Japan.
