For Tourists
During the Golden Week period, we expect the roads in the town to be congested. Please use public transportation such as trains and buses as much as possible. Also, please use the restroom as soon as possible.
Don’t do this when parking on the street.
Illegal street parking increases in Karuizawa in summer. On-street parking can cause traffic congestion and accidents, so please be sure to park in a nearby parking lot, even if you think it is just for a short time.
