The Sublime Moment on the Clear Stream at Night

The Hidden Paradise of Asama Onsen

In the foothills about a 20-minute drive from the center of Matsumoto, there is a small hidden paradise. Asama Onsen Hotaru no Sato, as its name suggests, is a precious place where you can witness the fantastic dance of fireflies on summer nights. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the environment surrounded by a quiet stream will lead you into a different world.

A Night Viewing Party of Nature's Mystery

As you walk along the promenade surrounded by trees with a stream flowing beside, you will soon see faint lights in the dark night. They are the pale blue light of fireflies. The flock of fireflies dancing together is like the starry sky descending to the ground. If you take a leisurely walk and admire them, you will surely be captivated by the faint light trails.

Interacting with the Local People

The charm of this place is not only in the dance of fireflies. Interacting with the local people who come to see the fireflies is also a pleasure. Sharing locations with each other and engaging in simple conversations,

I just happened to pass by in the fall, so I shouldn't rate it. It was a beautiful place even without the fireflies. Of course, the water is beautiful.

Of course, the season of fireflies is good, but skunk cabbage, which blooms when the cherry blossoms fall, is also good. That means the water is beautiful.

I think it's a relatively minor but good place, ・Too close to the parking lot ・There is a strong street light on the mountainside of the parking lot. For this reason, when cars arrive at night, the fireflies disappear all at once. I think the street lights here should be a little weaker. Also, if people visiting here come by car at night, I'd like to see a side light at the entrance.

Fireflies live in a quiet clear stream at the foot of the mountain in Asama Onsen. The hill that climbs up from the hot spring town is the course of the Tour de Utsukushigahara. It's also fun to walk while feeling the steep slope and looking at the night view of Matsumotodaira.

I went there last night, and it was awesome to see all the fireflies! (Along with us, there were several other families and an elderly man who lives in the area, and we all looked at it in a friendly manner, saying things like, "It's over there!" and "It's here too!") The review below says, "Just going there is a waste of time," but we were able to spend a very meaningful time! Thank you for nature, people, and timing!
