Miyota Town, Kitasaku District, north of Karuizawa. “THE HIRAMATSU Karuizawa Miyota” stands in the small forest. “Table Nature”, which offers a full-course meal from meal time to various activities, offers a unique dining experience created by marrying magnificent nature and cuisine.

The setting for “Forest Dining” in early autumn is the villa’s private garden and terrace. Set up a crossed table for dinner that day, set up glasses and cutlery, and you’ll find yourself in a special dining room just for you, which appears in the extraordinary space of the forest.

Enjoy a course dinner of all 5 light French dishes centered on Shinshu ingredients selected by the chef to your heart’s content.
