Our guide
Lake Suwa lies in the central part of Nagano Prefecture. Our source says little more about it than that, so this page is short on detail, and we would rather say so than pad it out.
What we can add is its neighbour: Takashima Castle is about 2.6 km away in a straight line. We have not checked a public-transport route to the lake, so plan the journey on the map.
