Lake Haruna
My first stop was at Lake Haruna to stretch my legs.
Haruna Jinja Shrine
I kept seeing signs for this shrine along the road, so I followed them and decided to stop. Apparently, this shrine was built about 1,400 years ago.
It took me about 20 minutes to climb to the top.

Here are the statues of Haruna Shrine.
The walk from the front gate to the end took me about 20 minutes.

Oshio Shrine
I reached Oshio Shrine at a little after 9 am.
The climb to the shrine went very quickly.
Daien Lake is right across the road from Oshio Shrine.
Uodomenotaki Falls
The first falls for the day ended up being 魚止めの滝 or Fish Stop Waterfall.
I enjoyed a bento next to the falls.
Shiraito Falls
Shiraito Falls was filled with tourists. It was beautiful, though.
The falls are shaped like a horseshoe or a semi-circle.
After I finished at the falls, I went into Karuizawa City to do a load of laundry.
From Karuizawa, I drove into Nagano Prefecture to south of Matsumoto City to a rest stop for the night.
Total milage: 259.8 km
