Madarao-IIYAMA sta. Snow Monkey Park
Snow Monkey Shuttle
This plan offers a convenient direct shuttle bus connecting Madarao Kogen, Iiyama Station, and the Snow Monkey Park (Jigokudani Yaen-Koen).
The Snow Monkey Park is world-famous as one of the few places where you can watch wild Japanese macaques relaxing in natural hot springs. In winter, the sight of monkeys bathing in the snow creates a truly magical, picture-perfect scene. Visitors can also enjoy observing the monkeys’ natural behavior throughout the changing seasons.
