Karuizawa in Nagano Prefecture is a resort town surrounded by mountains, waterfalls and hot springs. It is located at the foot of Mount Asama and was once a post town along the Nakasendo Road, an ancient road connecting Tokyo to Kyoto during the Edo Period.
Today, Karuizawa is an upscale summer destination as temperature is milder than nearby cities like Tokyo. Locals and visitors from abroad visit the quaint town to see the mix of Japanese and Western influences in architecture and cuisine and indulge in various outdoor activities.
Karuizawa is very popular with couples and families. But as a solo traveller, I have mix reviews. If you are curious about all the things to do in Karuizawa and if it’s worth going alone, keep reading. I put together an itinerary for first-time visitor to Karuizawa without a car. I’d love to hear what you think of the city and if you would travel to Karuizawa by yourself.

What you need to know before visiting Karuizawa
Before starting your Karuizawa itinerary, take a look at my post on everything you need to know before going to Japan. I included a lot of tips on how to get around Japan and other travel tips.
Here are a few additional travel tips that you may find useful for your Karuizawa trip:
- Karuizawa can be visited all year round. Summer temperatures are milder than in Tokyo, making Karuizawa an excellent spot for a short summer vacation. Spring is best for cherry blossoms, while Autumn is terrific for fall foliage. Winter is the best time for winter activities and snow scenery.
- Karuizawa is a safe city for solo female travellers. I spent a few days in the town, taking public transportation and walking alone, and felt safe.
- Plan your trip to Karuizawa around these festivals and events:
- KyuKaruizawa Summer Festival (late August) – see a parade with traditional drums, music and dance, sumo matches and fireworks at Suwa Shrine.
- Karuizawa Momiji Festival (late September to early November) – Karuizawa has many momiji (red maple trees), making the city an excellent choice for seeing autumn foliage.
- Karuizawa Winter Festival (late November to late February) – enjoy all the Christmas festivities, including a traditional Christmas market.
How to get to Karuizawa, Japan
Plane
Shinshu-Matsumoto Airport (MMJ) is the nearest airport to Karuizawa. However, only a few domestic flights (Osaka Itami, Kobe, Fukuoka, Sapporo) fly to MMJ.
Which means that many visitors are flying to other airports like Haneda Airport (HND) or Narita International Airport (NRT) near Tokyo and taking the Shinkansen (bullet train) to Karuizawa, which takes a little over an hour.
Train
There are two train stations in Karuizawa: Karuizawa Station and Nakakaruizawa Station.
Karuizawa Station is the main train station and is located on the east side of the city and is connected by two train lines, Hokuriku Shinkansen Line and Shinano Tetsudo Line.
Hokuriku Shinkansen is the bullet train line that connects cities like Nagano and Kanazawa to the west and Tokyo to the east. And Shinano Tetsudo Line is the local train that connects smaller cities like Komoro, Ueda, Shinonoi, Nagano and Myoko-Kogen.
Nakakaruizawa Station, which is located on the west side of Karuizawa, is part of the Shinano Tetsudo Line.
How to get around Karuizawa on your own
Karuizawa has two main areas: Kyukaruizawa (east), which includes areas like Kyukaruizawa and Shinkaruizawa while Nakakaruizawa (west) includes neighbourhoods such as Nakakaruizawa, and Hoshino.
While walking is possible if you are already in Kyukaruizawa or Nakakaruizawa, but to get to other places in Karuizawa, you will need a car or take one of the following transportations.
Bicycle
Bicycle rental shops are located near Karuizawa Station, Nakakaruizawa Station, and the Old Karuizawa Ginza area. Prices for a standard bike start at ￥500 per hour and ￥1,300 per day. Bikes can be rent on an hourly basis or by the day.
Karuizawa Local Bus Network
Karuizawa has two main local bus network: Kusakaru Kotsu Bus and Seibu Bus. You can pay the bus fare with cash or IC card.
Alternatively, you could get a Karuizawa Free Pass which allows unlimited rides on the Shinano Railway between Komoro and Karuizawa and local buses in town (not including Karuizawa Aka Bus and beyond Onoishidashi). One-day pass costs ￥2500 and two-day pass costs ￥3600. Passes are on sale at Shinano Railway Karuizawa, Nakakaruizawa, Miyota and Komoro stations.
1. Kusakaru Kotsu Bus
Kusakaru Kotsu Bus start from Karuizawa Station North Exit Platform 2. The bus goes to Kyu-Karuizawa, Shiraito Waterfall, Mine no Chaya and end at Kusatsu Onsen. Fare is staggered and cash only. Bus operates hourly.
Check Kusakaru Kotsu Bus Schedule before taking the trip.
2. Seibu Bus
Seibu Kanko Bus has several routes in Karuizawa. But there are only two you need to know and they both depart from Karuizawa Station North Exit Platform 1.
- Town Loop: from Karuizawa Station, via Kyo-Karuizawa Ginza, Nakakaruizawa Station to Hoshino Onsen. And in the reverse direction. Fare is staggered; one-way can cost up to ￥500 (cash or IC card)
- Manza Bus Terminal: from Karuizawa Station, via Nakakaruizawa Station, Mine no Chaya, Onoishidashi to Manza Bus Terminal.
Learn how to use the Seibu Kanko Bus and check bus schedules (going to Onioshidashi and coming back from Onioshidashi) before going.
Karuizawa Special Buses

Karuizawa Day Trip Itinerary
My one-day itinerary starts in Kyukaruizawa on the east side for exploring all touristy sites. Then take walk or take the local bus to the popular outlet mall and do some retail therapy. Then take the bus to Nakakaruizawa on the west side and end the day with either an evening Japanese Flying Squirrel Tour or a hot spring experience at Tonbo-no-yu.
1. Old Karuizawa Ginza Street
During the Edo Period when many people started building their holiday homes in Karuizawa, the government designated a street as the shopping district of Karuizawa. This street is called the Old Karuizawa Ginza Street.
Today, you can find many things to eat and buy on this main street. There are chic cafes, retro bakeries, old-fashioned coffee shops, and artisan craft stores on both sides of cobbled stone street.
Wander around the main thoroughfare but also through the little side streets. Take note of the retro architecture of some of the buildings like The Karuizawa Tourist Hall. It is actually an information centre and it has a mini railway museum on the second floor.
Also look for Boulangerie Asanoya, a retro bakery selling French baked goods since 1933. And if you are fan of Miffy, there is a Miffy Kitchen Bakery on the main street. And if you plan to buy souvenirs, several shops sell jam and honey.
How to get to Old Karuizawa Ginza Street: take Seibu Kanko Bus at Hoshino Onsen to Kyu-Karuizawa. It costs ￥500 (cash or IC card)
Address: 878 Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 9:30am-6:30pm | Admission: free
2, 3 & 4. Karuizawa St Paul’s Catholic Church, Karuizawa Union Church and Suwa Shrine
Near Old Karuizawa Ginza Street are a few religious places that might pique your interest.
To the north of the main street is Karuizawa St. Paul’s Catholic Church, a wooden church designed by a Czech architect Antonin Raymond. This is the only Catholic church in Karuizawa and it was constructed in 1935.
Located south of the main street is Karuizawa Union Church. It was designed by an American architect William Merrell Vories. Established in 1897, the rustic church has a long history of serving the community by offering services like youth retreats, lectures, education services and a concert hall. They have Sunday services at 3pm during summer.
Not far from the church is Suwa Shrine, a Shinto shrine surrounded by many sacred trees. This is where the Kyu-Karuizawa Summer Festival is held.
Address: Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 9am-4pm | Admission: free
5 & 6. Karuizawa Shaw Memoriał Church & Alexander Croft Shaw House
Alexander Croft Shaw, a Canadian Anglican missionary, visited Karuizawa and was discovered how lovely Karuizawa is during summer. He loved the mild weather (compared to Tokyo) so much that he built the first cottage in Karuizawa. He was the one who introduce the town as a summer retreat.
During the summer of 1895, he built the Karuizawa Shaw Memoriał Church. This is the place where he held services on Sundays. Today, the Shaw Memoriał Chapel is the oldest church in Karuizawa and anyone can visit the attend Sunday services.
And while you are visiting the chapel, walk to the back and visit the Shaw House. This was his home and is currently restored as a museum with several exhibits.
Address: 57-1 Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 9am-5pm | Admission: free
7. Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza
After exploring Kyukaruizawa, walk or take the bus over to Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza, one of the largest shopping malls in Japan. The outlet mall has over 200 stores selling local and international brands, restaurants, coffee shops, food court and the entire mall is very pet-friendly (I saw many dogs here!)
And because it is located next to Karuizawa Station, it is an excellent spot for day-trippers from Tokyo to do some major shopping. Foreign tourists can enjoy tax-free shopping (get VAT tax back if you spend over ￥5,000).
I’m not much of a shopper and I usually travel with a 7kg backpack so it doesn’t leave much room for buying new things. But I did find some good deals at the outlet mall (although I didn’t buy anything).
Address: Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 10am-7pm | Admission: free
8 & 9. Stone Church and Karuizawa Kogen Church
Next, take the local bus to Nakakaruizawa on the west end of Karuizawa and see attractions in the Hoshino Area. This is a touristy neighbourhood and it has several fun attractions.
First, visit Stone Church. If I didn’t know this is a church, I would think it is some type of post modern architectural installation in the forest. The design of the Stone Church was meant blend into the natural surroundings, ensuring airflow and waterflow in the area. It was constructed in remembrance of the Japanese Christian evangelist Uchimura Kanzo, and was designed by American architect Kendrick Kellogg.
Then walk over to Karuizawa Kogen Church, a western-style church that looks like a wooden hut with a pointed triangular roof. The architecture of the cabin-like church is one-of-a-kind especially because it was built in 1921. You can see the inside of this Catholic Church and the rectory next door.
Make sure to arrive at the churches well before 3pm so you can see both churches.
Address: Hoshino, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 10am-5pm | Admission: free
10. Harunire Terrace
Then cross the main road and visit Harunire Terrace, a small and upscale dining and shopping area that is built like a small town. There are 16 unique stores, cafes and restaurants that occupy nine timber buildings. These cozy wooden houses are connected by wooden decks next to Yukawa River.
This is a good place to have dinner. And you can find many unique concept stores, boutique shops for a bit of shopping.
Address: 2145ｰ5 Nagakura, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 10am-6pm | Admission: free
11. Karuizawa Wild Bird Sanctuary
Karuizawa Wild Bird Sanctuary is a 100 hectares of land that is part of the open forested sanctuary. The area has over 80 species of birds, butterflies and flora and fauna. You can see many types of birds unique to the area by walking the 3km path. Rent a bear bell for free at the Picchio visitor centre.
Or you can sign up for one of the Nature Watching Tour (April to November) at the visitor centre next to the manmade pond.
If you are around in winter, consider joining the Japanese Flying Squirrel Tour (only evenings from March to November). Many people loved this tour! I saw cute flying squirrel signs around the trails and wasn’t sure what to think of it. It is when I’m writing this post that I realized I missed a good walking tour.
Address: 2145ｰ5 Nagakura, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 9:30am-4pm September to April; 9:30am-5pm May to August | Admission: free
12. Tonbo-no-yu
After your (guided) hike around the bird sanctuary, you can try the hot springs at Tonbo-no-yu. The Hoshino Area is full of hot spring facilities. When you follow the walking trails from the bird sanctuary, you will soon arrive at this modern hot spring facility.
Tonbo-no-yu has natural hot spring water (soft water) from Hoshino Onsen. There is a Hinoki indoor bath, a rustic open-air rock bath, cold bath with spring water and sauna. It costs ￥1,350 for adults. But no tattoos. They are open until 10pm.
Address: 2145ｰ5 Nagakura, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 10am-10pm | Admission: ￥1,350
Karuizawa 2-Day Itinerary
If you decide to stay another day in Karuizawa, then follow the day 2 itinerary to see the attractions outside of the city centre by taking public transportation on your own. It is possible to get around to places outside of Karuizawa without a car and I detailed all the bus info you will need for day two.
1. Usui Pass Observation Platform
Usui Pass Observation Platform is located on a mountain peak at 1,200m and it straddles between Nagano and Gunma Prefecture. At the top, you can see Kumano Grand Shrine, a 1,000-year-old Shina sacred tree and views of Myogi mountain range to the east and Mt Asama to the west.
You can either hike up and down the Kyu-Usui Pass Sightseeing Trail, which starts at the Usui Pass monument which is at the end of Old Karuizawa Ginza Street, or take the Karuizawa Aka Bus to and from the platform, or a combination of both.
If you decide to hike either up or down, make sure you allocate enough time to get back to Karuizawa Station before 11:50am for the next activity on the itinerary. It takes about 40 minutes to hike up. And bring a bear bell to scare off black bears.
How to get to Usui Pass Observation Platform: take the Karuizawa Aka Bus at the Tokyo Harvest Club Kyukaruizawa (north of Karuizawa Station) at 9:40am. Then take the same bus back down at 11am. Then walk over to Karuizawa Station for the next attraction. It costs ￥500 each way.
Address: Togemachi, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 8:30am-5:15pm; closed Saturdays & Sundays | Admission: free
2. Onioshidashi Volcanic Park
When Mt Asama erupted in 1783, the lava swallowed the surrounding area and wiped out a nearby village. And because of all these volcanic activities, that is how Onioshidashi Volcanic Park was born.
When you spend a few hours at the volcanic park, which is at is 1,325m in elevation and part of the Joshinetsu-Kogen National Park, you can see sharp, blocky black volcanic rocks of various shapes and sizes. Plus, visit several temples including Mount Asama Kannon-do Temple and Toeizan Kaneiji.
There is enough time to hike the small loop (40 minutes) and big loop (70 minutes). The next bus going back to Karuizawa (and next destination) is at 3:25pm. Also there is a cafeteria, food vendors (during warmer months) and souvenir shop.
How to get to Onioshidashi Volcanic Park: take Seibu Kanko Bus from Karuizawa Station north exit (11:50am) to Onioshidashi (12:35pm). It costs ￥1300 with cash or IC card.
Address: 1053 Kanbara, Tsumagoi, Agatsuma District, Gunma | Hours: 8am-5pm | Admission: ￥700
3. Shiraito Waterfall
Next up is Shiraito Waterfall, one of more well-known waterfalls in the area. It is 3m high and 70m wide and it has water from Yukawa River flowing out of the semi-circular rock wall. The waterfall looks especially beautiful during summer when trees are growing and fall due to autumn colours. I went in April so it is not as picturesque but also not crowded.
From Onioshidashi, you can either take two buses or take one bus and hike down to the waterfall.
If you choose the hiking route, hike east on the Shinanoji Nature Trail from Mine no Chaya to Shiraito Waterfall. It is 2.8km long. FYI – you cannot walk on the road. And Google Maps doesn’t show the route, but if you have the Maps.me app, the hiking route is the dotted lines.
How to get to Shiraito Waterfalls: take Seibu Kanko Bus from Onioshidashi (3:25pm) to Mine no Chaya (3:34pm). It costs ￥220 with cash or IC card. Then either hike (trailhead next to bus stop; find trail info board or Maps.me) or take Kusakaru Kotsu Bus from Mine no Chaya (3:38pm) to Shiraito Waterfall (3:43pm). It costs ￥160 cash.
Address: Shiraito Highland-Way, Nagakura, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 8am-5pm | Admission: free
4. Ryugaeshi Falls
Catch the next bus and take it to Ryugaeshi Falls, a smaller waterfall hidden away in the forest. You can get to the waterfall via bus or hiking route (but it is 7.5km long and takes 2.5 hour; it is too late in the day to hike).
Because of the tight bus schedule, you have about 30 minutes to search for the waterfall before the next bus leaves at 4:57pm (last bus back to Karuizawa). It takes 10 minutes to hike in and another 10 minutes to hike back out. But it is possible to see this hidden gem.
How to get to Ryugaeshi Falls: take Kusakaru Kotsu Bus from Shiraito Waterfall (4:20pm) to Kosen Onsen (4:27pm) bus stop which is outside of the Ancient Hotel Karuizawa. The trail starts from the parking lot. It costs ￥270 cash.
Address: Shiraito Highland-Way, Nagakura, Karuizawa, Kitasaku District, Nagano | Hours: 24 hours | Admission: free
5, 6 or 7. Historic Mikasa Hotel, Old Karuizawa Ginza Street or Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza
Historic Mikasa Hotel was one of Japan’s first Western-style hotels. It was operating from 1906 to 1970. Today, it is preserved for its heritage and converted to a museum. However, the museum is closed for renovation until the end of 2025.
If the Historic Mikasa Hotel is open, I would suggest visiting it. You can catch the 4:57pm bus (the last bus) from Kosen Onsen bus stop. But then that means you will have to walk from the museum back to Kyu-Karuizawa to either shop and eat at Old Karuizawa Ginza Street or take other bus routes to other parts of the city.
Since the museum is not open, take the 4:57pm bus to Kyu-Karuizawa for Old Karuizawa Ginza Street or Karuizawa Station and continue shopping at Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza. And end your second day in Karuizawa at either spot.
How to get to Historic Mikasa Hotel or Karuizawa: take Kusakaru Kotsu Bus from Kosen Onsen (4:57pm) to Mikasa (5:05pm). It costs ￥270. Or take the same bus (4:57pm) to Kyu-Karuizawa (5:09pm) or Karuizawa Station (5:13pm). It costs ￥460.
Other Things to Do in Karuizawa Japan
If you are in Kanazawa for a few days and want to see and do other things or venture outside the city, consider seeing one or few of these places:
- Karuizawa Ando Museum (10am-5pm; closed Wednesdays; ￥2200) – over 180 pieces of work by Tsuguharu Foujita, a world-renowned Japanese painter.
- Karuizawa Prince Hotel Snow Resort (8:30am-4:30pm) – a ski resort offering lessons and equipment rental. Available between November and March.
- Kumoba Pond (24 hours) – also known as Swam Lake, excellent for walking around. Lush green trees in summer and colourful autumn leaves during fall.
- Mount Hanare – hike up to the viewing platform at 1,256m. The trail head is behind Museum of History and Folklore, Karuizawa.
- Kusatsu Onsen – take the Kusakaru Kotsu Bus to hot spring town from Karuizawa Station. It takes 80 minutes and costs ￥2240.
What and Where to Eat in Karuizawa
The selection of food in Karuizawa is quite different from other cities in Japan. There are Japanese restaurants, of course, but there is a wide variety of western food options. Here are all the yummy food I found in Karuizawa and where to eat them:
- Soba – the most popular Japanese restaurant in Karuizawa is Kawakamian (two locations: Old Karuizawa Ginza Street and Harunire Terrace), which is known for its soba noodles (Japanese buckwheat noodles)
- Curry bread – the Japanese curry inside doughy bread can be found in a few places in Karuizawa. I tried one at Mikasa Coffee on Old Karuizawa Ginza Street. Mikasa Curry also sells curry bread.
- Pastry – there are many cafes and bakeries around Karuizawa, including Boulangerie Asanoya and Sawamura Bakery & Restaurant (two locations: Old Karuizawa Ginza Street and Harunire Terrace)
- Coffee – Maruyama Coffee originated in Karuizawa and has been around since 1991. You can also have coffee and soft-serve coffee ice cream at Mikado Coffee (two locations: Old Karuizawa Ginza Street and Prince Shopping Plaza).
- Jam– Karuizawa is the birthplace of Japanese jam. Cerfeuil and Sawaya on Old Karuizawa Ginza Street has a wide selection of jams, honey, and other food souvenirs.
- Western food – there’s French food at Cercle Wine & Deli, German food at Chozumeya, Italian food at Trattoria il Pinguino, and rotisserie chicken at Kastanie Rotisserie.
Where to stay in Karuizawa as a solo traveller
Karuizawa is a resort town with many mid to high-end accommodations. It wasn’t easy to find something affordable, but I did find a mid-range hotel not in the city centre and two high-end hotels within walking distance of Karuizawa attractions.
- Karuizawa Hotel Longing House ($$) – located on the main road between KyuKaruizawa (east) and NakaKaruizawa (west), this 3.5-star hotel has Japanese and Western rooms. The best part of the hotel is the private outdoor private hot spring. You can book a timeslot once a day during your stay. Check prices & reviews: Agoda and Booking
- Hoshino Resorts BEB5 Karuizawa ($$$) – a modern resort hotel with contemporary rooms and many common areas. Walking distance to all the attractions in the Hoshino Area. Check prices & reviews: Agoda and Booking
- Twin-Line Hotel Karuizawa ($$$) – a boutique hotel with compact but well-designed rooms. Walking distance to Old Karuizawa Ginza Street. If I go to Karuizawa again, I will stay here. Check prices & reviews: Agoda and Booking
Is Karuizawa worth visiting for a solo traveller
I’m going to be honest: I’m not sure if it’s worth going to Karuizawa as a solo traveller, i.e., someone travelling with public transportation only and does not have a car.
Even though many buses connect different parts of Karuizawa, research is required in advance, and sometimes, the wait for the bus is long. With a car, you can quickly drive around as the road condition is good and parking spaces are available.
I would only recommend going to Karuizawa alone if you want to shop at the outlet mall (the selection and prices are pretty good). And since you are already in Karuizawa, see all the highlights around Old Karuizawa Ginza Street.
I know Karuizawa is a popular destination for couples and families. But if you are a solo traveller and had a different experience than I did, let me know in the comments below.
