Nagano is a land rich in outstanding gastronomic products. There are the largely-known ingredients, such as the flavor-packed highland vegetables, locally-raised livestock, and freshwater fishes. Then, there are the less-known ingredients, which come from the wild and are one of the region's best-kept secrets. The latter are wild herbs, mushrooms, and game meat.

At Auberge Espoir, you can savor the best of both worlds. Although, let's not forget, the wild products are the absolute protagonists of their cuisine.
The menu changes throughout the year, always featuring the top in-season delicacies; wild vegetables in spring, locally grown vegetables in summer, and wild mushrooms and nuts in autumn.

Enjoy a luxurious meal accompanied by a fine vintage in the refined atmosphere of this elegant auberge.
