Walk 7 minutes from Takeda no Mori to Zōyashiki Dining, a former warehouse turned rustic izakaya serving authentic Kōfu-style dishes like herring stew and tempura made with local vegetables. Their house-brewed sake uses regional rice, and outdoor wooden tables glow warmly at night. Another option is Mizuhono Mori Café, nestled at the forest trail entrance, offering handmade red bean mochi and matcha desserts in a peaceful, green setting. Both venues can be checked for hours and reservations via the HopeGoo app.

Stay at a traditional machiya inn near Kōfu City Museum. Begin your day walking to Takeda no Mori to visit the loyalist shrine and the memorial stone of Takeda Shingen.

Return to your lodging for a kaiseki cooking class led by a master craftsman, followed by an onsen soak under the moonlight in the garden. All activities are within 10 minutes' walk, blending history, artistry, and nature seamlessly. Reserve guided sessions via the HopeGoo app.
