Kamikōchi is bordered on its northern end by Mount Hotaka, and on its southern end by Mount Yake. The mountains and valleys were shaped in part by glacial activity, proof of which can still be seen in some of the most prominent peaks. This valley looks beautiful with many features such as Takezawa Marsh, Tashiro Pond, and Myojin Pond. The water temperature is cold, even in the height of summer. Other features include two camping areas, a number of hotels with Western-style or traditional style, a tourist information center, souvenir shops, and a post office.
