Chikuma City - Kamesei Ryokan

We took a shinkansen from Omiya to Nagano and then the Shinonoi Line line, maybe, to the Shinano Tetsudo Line to get to Togura Station in Chikum. We then walked from the station to the Kamesei Ryokan. This is a traditional onsen inn and we really enjoyed both it and the food. Also, temperatures in Nagano Prefecture were notably lower than anywhere we had been so far. We really liked this place and would likely go again. I did not take pictures of the onsen and public bath, but you can find images online.
