If you're in need of some outdoor adventure, make sure you visit Mount Hikarujo. No easy stroll around the block, this hike is perfect for a mid-vacation work out.
This steep landmass is often on the itineraries of visitors to Azumino. But Mount Hikarujo isn't the only drawcard in the area. Matsumoto Castle, Asama Hot Spring, and Daio Wasabi Farm are some other worthwhile sights close by.
