We founded “SEN.” as a place where travelers walking the sacred Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail can stay with peace of mind. SEN.HAVEN is a simple and functional lodging designed to ensure pilgrims along the Kumano Kodo can rest well and take confident steps toward the next day’s journey. “SEN.” is committed to addressing regional challenges such as population decline and a shortage of successors for local accommodations in each village. Our mission is to help preserve the environment and culture that allow people to walk the Kumano Kodo for generations to come. Therefore, we operate sustainably as an unmanned accommodation without on-site reception or staff. Together with staff from various local communities, we are dedicated to creating a comfortable stay for all guests while helping pass down the legacy of the Kumano Kodo to the future. SEN.HAVEN NAKAMURA is located exactly halfway between Kumano Hongu Taisha and Kumano Nachi Taisha, on the Kohechi route between Kogumotori Pass and Ogumotori Pass. Surrounded by pristine streams, the quiet former village of Oguchi has long served as an important rest point for pilgrims. ■ Whole-house Rental Plan Accommodates from 2 up to 9 guests, offering exclusive use of the entire building. Dinner: Local bento meal Breakfast: Bread and butter Optional Lunch: If you would like a trekking bento, please let us know after booking. Prices, meal services, and available options vary by plan.
