The main hub for shops is in the area around the Kamikochi Bus Terminal and Kappa Bridge.
For prepared food items as well as gifts and sundries, we recommend browsing the shops around Kappa Bridge, where practical items for hiking may also be found. As souvenirs go, be sure to have a look for tenugui, small hand towels adorned with colorful illustrations and usable as bandanas. They make great keepsakes and decorations, as do the t-shirts most lodges sell.
Food items can only be bought at the shops available at the Konashidaira Campsite.
