Nothing beats hot springs in the winter – and you’re in luck as we will be travelling to one of Gunma Prefecture’s most famous hot spring villages – Ikaho Onsen! Explore the idyll of this quaint town and zip up and down the iconic stone staircase – one of the most famous in all of Japan. We’ll also be making stops along the way at the Toy & Car Museum and at a daruma-making workshop to learn more about Gunma’s culture and traditions!
