Wildlife Night Drive in Winter
There are many wild animals living in Karuizawa. They are almost impossible to come across in our daily lives, even though they should be living close by. Join the Picchio staff on this Night Safari Tour to take a peek into their nightly lives. The animals you meet in the forest on a wintery night might show you something you didn’t know before.
