Activities are currently being
conducted on the old road, Route 148, highways and city streets
that lie along the Northern "Shionomichi" route that
spans the two cities of Itoigawa (Niigata Prefecture) and Omachi
(Nagano Prefecture) and the two villages of Otari and Hakuba
(Niigata Prefecture).In the future, we are aiming to develop the
route as a whole so that the Southern "Shionomichi"
road as far as Kakegawa City may also be included.
The route can be broadly divided into two parts - the 120 km
Northern "Shionomichi" route (Itoigawa-Shijiri) and
the 230 km Southern "Shionomichi" route
(Sagara-Shiojiri). The Northern route passes between the two
national parks (the Chubu Sangaku Kokuritsu Koen and the
Joshinetsu-kogen National Park) and lies along the Western
border of the Fossa Magna.
The landscape of this area is unique, having been shaped by the
diverse communities that formed in the mountains and valleys
that weave their way through the alpine region at the foot of
Mr. Higashiyama in the Northern Alps, creating spectacular
scenery that is in harmony with nature.
