Day 44
Tokacho -> Yudanaka
Distance:90km
Big-roofed wooden houses dotted the valley as we climbed up and into scenic Nagano prefecture, the 'roof of Japan.' Tonight we camp in an onsen (hot spring) town called Yudanaka. 'Yu' means hot water in Japanese, and there are so many onsens here that even the train station has its own (it was very nice). Just up the valley - up being the operative word - is the Shiga Plateau and the most famous ski fields in the country (host to the '98 Nagano Olympics).
