Chalet Shiga

The interior of the chalet, adorned with numerous works capturing the stunning nature of Shiga Kogen, feels like an art gallery. Quietly decorating the space are watercolor and oil paintings depicting the beautiful four seasons, pressed flower art made from fallen leaves given new life, and dynamic ski photography. Beyond the glass windows lies the abundant natural beauty of Shiga Kogen, showcasing the charm of each season. Chalet Shiga underwent partial renovations in the autumn of 2021. Enjoy a more comfortable stay where you can feel the precious nature up close.

Shiga Kogen, located within the Joshin'etsu Kogen National Park and recognized as a UNESCO Eco Park (Biosphere Reserve), is a place rich in nature and ecosystems. The precious natural environment, preserved without excessive development, is filled with the charm of the four seasons, offering a variety of ways to enjoy it. Stroll along walking trails to encounter seasonal flowers, experience forest therapy by immersing yourself in the fresh woodland air, trek through wetlands and lakes, hike up to alpine plant paradises, enjoy exhilarating mountain cycling through breathtaking scenery, engage in water activities on tranquil ponds, observe the Genji fireflies with their long blinking cycles at Shibu-no-Yu, capture stunning landscapes, flora, and starry skies through photography, or ski across vast slopes that cannot be fully explored in a single day. Make the most of your Shiga Kogen experience by using our conveniently located accommodation as your base. We are happy to guide you to recommended courses, hidden spots, and the most beautiful locations of the day.
