With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up all that Saku, 19 miles away, has to offer. Saku Ski Garden Parada should be at the top of your list here. Komaba Park and Kurosawa Sake Brewery are awesome attractions too. Don’t skip Chichibu either! Just 19 miles away, Mitsumine Shrine, Mt. Mitsumine and Road Station Arakawa are must-sees here.
