Jigokudani Monkey Park

Amazing wildlife experience

This was one of my first experiences in Nagano, and it was every bit as amazing as I'd hoped. I would recommend to come prepared with appropriate footwear if you visit during winter - we wore snowboots and they were necessary. The park here is a wildlife experience like no other, and being able to see the monkeys bathing in the snow covered onsen up close is a memory that will stick with me forever.
