Riding a Tenere 700 to Kamikochi and Mount Yakedake for a Mountain-Hut Climb
PHOTOFORR (フォーアール)↗ View original

A touring diary follows a rider on a Yamaha Tenere 700 from Chiba to Kamikochi in Nagano, covering roughly 300km in four and a half hours to reach Sawando, where a hot-spring mountain hut offers motorcycle parking for just 400 yen a day. The rider then stays at Kamonji Lodge near Myojin Pond and reunites with former hut coworkers before climbing Mount Yakedake.

Kamikochi usually brings to mind trains and buses, but riding a Tenere 700 straight to Sawando has its own appeal. Leaving Chiba at 4am and covering 300km to arrive by 8:30, swapping a roadside station for a hot-spring mountain hut along the way — that kind of trip planning makes me want to rethink where I go next.

Guessing you walk or bus it from Sawatari into Kamikochi itself.

Kamikochi has car restrictions — are motorcycles actually allowed in?

Running into a former coworker at Kamonji-goya is almost too good a story.

A bike-only garage for just 400 yen a day is such a good deal.

400 yen is cheap, but it probably only fits a handful of bikes.

300km from Chiba to Sawatari in 4.5 hours on the Tenere 700 — nice pace.

Pairing it with a Yakedake climb sounds like the perfect day off.
