The morning after camping at Tazawako it didn’t even take 5 minutes after we started to ride until it heavy rain forced us to to put our rain gear on. But with the same speed the rain hit us the clouds broke up again and weather became better every minute.
Continuing our ride south we first stayed at Yokote before heading in direction of Oyasukyo part of Kurikoma Quasi-National Park. Staying in the beautiful Tarobee Ryokan we enjoyed the 3 differen Onsen and the fabulous kaiseki dinner. With our bodies fully recovered, continuing on the forsaken backcountry roads in direction to Naruko Onsen was relaxed in every sense.
