Situated just northeast of Kyu-Karuizawa, the Usui Pass Observation Platform offers an unforgettable vantage point where visitors can stand across two prefectures at once. On clear days, the deck opens up to spectacular panoramas of majestic Mount Asama on one side and the rolling mountain ranges of Gunma on the other. It is an ideal spot for photographers and nature lovers seeking crisp alpine air and breathtaking scenery. Whether framed by fresh summer greenery or vibrant autumn foliage, the view from the ridge makes for a rewarding day trip.
