Minoto-sanso (美濃戸山荘)

Minoto-sanso is a classic trailhead-style mountain lodge at Minoto—the key junction where the routes split into Kita-zawa (North Stream) and Minami-zawa (South Stream) for objectives like Mt. Akadake and Mt. Yokodake. It’s primarily a logistics base: park, reset, sleep, and start early—rather than a “ridge hut” experience.
