Mercure Miyagi Zao Resort & Spa

Miyagi-Zao Royal Hotel stands in the Zao Mountains, stretching into the distance. The scale of nature here is immense, with the pleasures and thrills unbroken throughout spring, summer, fall and winter alike. The Echo Line highway originates at the hotel's entrance, making it easy to motor up the mountain past breathtaking Fudo Falls. Closer to the summit lies “Okama,” a crater lake that ranks as a scenic symbol of Zao. Emerging in the winter are the huge frost-covered trees landscapes for which Zao is also renowned, while bird watching, mountain stream fishing and other stimulating activities further add to the enjoyment of nature.
