He likes animals but is not too interested in monkeys! Was thinking about going there next Jan with my mum.

Nice spot to come back to after a beautiful stroll through the forest. _________________________ Ride the White Horse "Living the Dream" Top #85461 - Tue Aug 22 2006 02:22 PM Re: FEATURES: The Snow Monkeys of Jigokudani dale#1 SJ'er with 500+ posts Registered: Tue Apr 02 2002 Posts: 618 Loc: Tokyo Didn't notice that. Aren't there 2 paths leading up to it - one nearer the main road going up to SK and the other one a little further in?

We caught a bus from the train station that dropped us off and pointed us up the hill. It was 1-2 km easy walk along a forest path to the monkeys. _________________________ Ride the White Horse "Living the Dream" Top #85463 - Fri Nov 03 2006 11:40 AM Re: FEATURES: The Snow Monkeys of Jigokudani snowboarding-sam SJ'er with 100+ posts Registered: Sun Dec 25 2005 Posts: 119 Loc: Omiya, Saitama I went last week and have made a gallery: http://www.snowjapan.com/e/insider/photo_section.php?userid=snowboardingsam&userGallery=72 Great place.

They are always there though apparently. You can get as close as you want - and that means very close. Well take a look at the photos on there, take a camera and you can take photos like that. _________________________ If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.
