* The Mt. Rokko Real Estate Consultation Desk is operated by Rokushosha Co., Ltd. (Kobe R Real Estate) under commission from Kobe City. Why not utilize the real estate on Mt. Rokko—such as former retreats and vacation homes—to establish a mountain living base, a nature-surrounded office or studio, or open a shop?
Forest Deck Retreat
Following the path behind ROKKOSAN SILENCE RESORT, you’ll come upon a building that once served as a hotel nestled within the Rokko Mountain forest.
A wooden deck sits atop the roof. “Practicing yoga here must feel absolutely wonderful…” Having only done online yoga lately, I imagined myself performing sun salutations surrounded by the forest, and suddenly felt utterly luxurious.
True to its former life as a hotel, the 2nd and 3rd floors feature 14 bedrooms.
The spacious training room has ample capacity—large enough for dancing—with views of cedar trees from every window.
The dining hall and adjacent kitchen are professionally equipped. Perfect for hosting large groups.
The interior and exterior were renovated in 2010, but some areas may soon require maintenance consideration.
So, what could this property be used for?
A promising option is a retreat facility where guests can fully recharge with the power of Rokko Mountain’s forest.
This is a trail junction. After crossing Chojigatsuji and walking past Mikuni Pond, it takes about an hour to reach Mount Maya. After working up a sweat on the moderately challenging Agony Slope, we recommend toasting with a cold beer at the goal, Kikuseidai’s “cafe 702,” while enjoying the view of the town.
For a shorter distance, “Diamond Point” is a viewpoint just 15 minutes away, offering sweeping views of the Kita Ward area. Shrine Road is also nearby. This path, with a small stream flowing alongside, has sections where clusters of butterbur shoots grow.
How about creating a stay where you spend a few days walking through the forest, enjoying delicious food, sleeping with a pleasant physical tiredness, and waking up to birdsong and the scenery? Here, even the sound of rain seems to offer a moment of peace for the mind.
Beyond this, Rokko Mountain offers various programs for easing use restrictions, making restaurants, offices, and lodging facilities possible.
If you have a wonderful “idea” or a “I’d love to try this!” moment, consider bringing it to life in this special place.
