Kirigamine Tateshina Venus Line

...The Tateshina Plateau is a gentle slope at an altitude of 1,200 to 1,800 meters on the southwest foot of Mt. Tateshina. It is a major tourist destination centered on the Tateshina Onsen hot springs such as Takinoyu, Kosai, and Shinyu, the Okutateshina Onsen hot springs along the Shibukawa River to the south, and the Tateshina Lake and Shirakaba Lake, both of which are man-made lakes for agricultural use. The development of tourism in the plateau progressed rapidly after the land of the Tateshina Onsen hot springs was purchased by a private company from the local Yukawa Property District in 1960, and the opening of the Tateshina Toll Road (now part of the Kirigamine Tateshina Venus Line) in 1963 also accelerated this trend. Currently, two golf courses, tennis courts, a swimming pool, a ski resort, and an ice rink have been developed, and the plateau is a year-round resort area. ...
