Description
Kohechi Lodging
The welcoming Minshuku Kawarabiso is located on its own on the banks of the beautiful Kawarabi-gawa river, which it draws its name from. It is a family run business so you may see the whole family helping at times. It also serves at the local restaurant. This facility used to be a fish farm for Amago, the red-spotted masu salmon, a highly prized delicacy. This fish is endemic to Japan and only lives in the cleanest rivers. You can still see the large cement cisterns nearby. Meals often feature Amago and other wild meats. Minshuku Kawarabiso is a 20 minute walk, or short drive, from the trailhead of the Kumano Kodo, Kohechi section; Obakotoge-pass to the south and Koyasan to the north. Please relax and enjoy the down-to-earth mountain hospitality.
