High above Omachi town · Where the Northern Alps rise

Step off the frantic trail. Breathe in the mountain forest.

One hectare of wild larch and cedar cradling an architect-commissioned 700 m² lodge. Think waist-deep dry powder by day, steaming cedar-scented baths by twilight, and slow-burning fires with a dram of local whisky at night.

02 / THE SANSO

Architecture with roots & pedigree

Born as a restorative mountain sanctuary for Tokyo’s educators and shaped by the celebrated minds at MDS Architects, this 700 m² haven was built for genuine restoration. Out on the forest lawn, a gnarled mountain cherry tree—standing sentinel for over two centuries—bursts into spring bloom as the winter snows recede.

WHY OMACHI · THE WATER REALM

Glacier-fed purity. The luxury of pure silence.

Omachi is baptized by the deep snowmelt of the Northern Alps. Unlike the bustling, neon-lit ski strips of Hakuba next door, our valley runs on crystal-clear spring water, pristine mountain lakes, hot mineral springs, and winding forest lanes. You come here to clear the mental clutter, plunge into the wild, and taste authentic mountain Japan.
