Would you like to get away from the noisy city and experience beautiful nature?
At EN RESORT Grandeco in Urabandai, Fukushima, this is possible!
In line with the resort's “Act and Rest” concept, guests can refresh themselves through experiences in nature rather than staying indoors.
By the end of this blog, you'll discover the remarkable points of Urabandai that will inspire you to “Act” in nature and find true “Rest”.
It's not too late but last minutes! Come to Grandeco and enjoy ski in the superb powder snow.
Let's plan your trip. We can help you plan your trip and make it the best ever!
First of all, the vast nature of Urabandai will welcome you.
One of the most famous volcanoes in Japan, the collapse of the mountain body in ancient times created the landforms around it, which have given rise to the beautiful nature seen today.
Hidden gems of alpine flowers can be found around the wetlands on this mountain.
You can enjoy the magnificent natural beauty, of course, by hiking and using cable cars.
Both mountains are on the list of Japan's top 100.
Lake Hibara, Lake Onogawa, and Lake Akimoto are known as "Three of the best lakes in Urabandai".
The Onogawa River, which flows into Lake Onogawa, is famous for its spring water, recognised as one of the best spring waters in Japan.
Travellers can enjoy the clear waters of this area at "Buna no Yu", a hot spring in the hotel.
“Momiji” (red leaves) colour the landscape and are a signature of Japanese autumn.
The breathtaking view of Momiji, often described as “Kin-shoku,” recalls the colour of traditional luxury fabric.
The mountains’ elevation preserves the vivid colours longer than in other regions, allowing travelers to enjoy this “Kin-shoku” view by cable car around the hotel.
Secondly, amazing dishes will impress you.
Guests will appreciate the gorgeous buffet for breakfast and dinner. It incorporates a wide variety of local ingredients, such as fresh beef, seafood and vegetables.
A must-try jelly dessert “Mizutama”, replicates the texture and clarity of fresh local spring water.
There is a limited-time course menu offering buckwheat noodles nurtured by rich nature, available every Friday, Saturday and the days before holidays in June, July and September.
You will enjoy lip-smacking dishes, such as tempura with seasonal foods and Junsai, a unique local vegetable.
Finally, you can’t miss nature experiences the hotel has to offer.
Explore the rich nature around the hotel while enjoying the fresh morning air. If you’re lucky, you might spot some wild animals.
Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy roasting marshmallows with other guests.
Experienced guides take you to explore locations such as wetlands and waterfalls.
There is also a private tour offering a customizable experience.
Discover the beauty of abundant snow from high elevations and limpid water.
In contrast to the "Kin-shoku" of Momiji in autumn, Urabandai turns into a bright white landscape in winter.
EN RESORT Grandeco provides group lessons for families, children, and friends, as well as private lessons for seniors over 50. Participants can choose according to their preference and skill levels.
Each spacious and comfortable room embodies the essence of Urabandai's beautiful nature. No matter which room you select, the balcony provides stunning views of the surrounding nature, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the tranquil environment, so you can relax and enjoy the gorgeous scenery.
You’ll find relaxation and refreshment through the beautiful nature and attractive services of EN RESORT Grandeco in Urabandai!
