ABOUT HORSE TERRACE
At the foot of Mt. Asama,
come closer to the animals.
Nishi-Karuizawa Horse Terrace is in Miyota, in Nagano's Karuizawa area. Wrapped in highland air, it is a place to feel the breath and warmth of horses and animals up close.
Our Friesian horses, beautiful in their dignified black coats, welcome you together with ponies, goats, a tortoise and our dogs.
Experience details may change depending on the animals' condition and the weather. Please contact us before your visit.
