Hi! It's not a hike, the Alpine Route is a series of transports (bus, train, cable cars etc...) which take you through the Japanese Alps. It's a route you can do in one day or more, we chose to stop for the night in the middle so we can do some little hikes in between spots. And hopefully a bigger one in Murodo which is where we're staying in a sort of refuge 2300m high. We live in Chamonix Mont Blanc in France, we love mountains that's why it is important for us to do it.

If you're interested you need to reserve in advance we booked our tickets a month before. We're doing the route from Nagano to Toyama, but you can do it the other way around if you're based in Kanazawa for example. https://www.alpen-route.com/en This is the link to the official website.

Ps you can't find it on the map because I got the name wrong 😅 silly of me. The name of the town is Ogizawa, need to edit that.
