Shishi Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Otaki Village, Kiso-gun, Nagano Prefecture; Representative Director: Shota Iwahori), which operates Ontake Ski Resort, will strengthen its green season operations, triggered by the designation of the Mount Ontake area as "Mount Ontake National Park" on April 10, 2026.
Mount Ontake has been recognized as a mountainous area with a rich natural environment and excellent scenery, and has now been newly designated as a National Park. This is expected to further enhance the value of the area as a tourist resource.
Ontake Ski Resort will take this opportunity to create an environment where more people can experience the nature of Mount Ontake, not only in winter but also during the green season.
## Center House Restaurant Renovated as "Oyama Shokudo"
~Green Season Operations Begin~
The center house restaurant, which previously operated as "Restaurant Orion," will be rebranded as "Oyama Shokudo" and will begin green season operations.
Mount Ontake has long been revered as an object of worship, and locals affectionately and respectfully call it "Oyama" (meaning "the mountain"). "Oyama" is not just a mountain; it is an entity that exists with people's lives and prayers.
Against this cultural background, the restaurant was named "Oyama Shokudo" as "a place where people gather at the foot of the mountain to receive its blessings."
Furthermore, we aim to be a place that grows with the local community, valuing our connections with local people.
In addition to popular standard menus, new menus utilizing local ingredients will also be offered.
- "Otaki Miso Nabe Teishoku," the winning menu of the Gele-shoku Battle
- Popular menu "Sanzoku-yaki Teishoku"
- New menu "Hinoki Seiro Teishoku"
