Kurobe-goro-koya (黒部五郎小舎)

The Kurobe-goro-koya (黒部五郎小舎) is a classic high-alpine stage hut in the heart of the Northern Japanese Alps, positioned in the saddle area between Mt. Kurobegorō-dake and Mitsumata Renge-dake. It’s part of the Sugoroku Hut Group network and is best understood as strategic infrastructure for serious multi-day traverses through the Kurobe headwaters—remote terrain where distances are long and weather exposure is constant.
