We are located in a wonderful remote area in Nikko in Nikko National Park on KuroKawa (黒川). There are no souvenir shops and no city lights. Only stars, trees and mountains. We are not walking distance to any train station or downtown Nikko. The only sound is the beautiful clean Kuro Kawa (Black River) and morning birds. You can swim in the river at the hostel and short hikes are nearby.
Breakfast is included. Free internet in the common room.
Free once-a-day morning shuttle to Toshugu Shrine via the most beautiful roads. After visiting the world heritage sites or Oku-Nikko and when you want to return to the hostel, take the train to Fubasami on the JR Nikko Line or Shimogoshiro on the Tobu Nikko Line. Call us before you board the train and we will meet you at the station.
