Mitake

The Kiso River defines the setting of Mitake — flowing along the town’s southern side, it gives this part of central Gifu Prefecture a settled valley character, framed by low wooded hills. Mitake developed on the historic Nakasendō, the Edo-period highway linking Kyoto and Edo, and Mitake-juku was one of its official post towns. That heritage still gives the town a strong connection to the old overland route through the Kiso region. Beyond the former post-town area, everyday life is shaped by residential neighbourhoods, farmland and access to the wider Chūbu interior.
