Umemura Adventure Museum, Biographical museum in Hasune, Kaga, Japan.

The Umemura Adventure Museum displays expedition gear, photographs, personal belongings, and documented accounts of adventurer Naomi Uemura's global journeys.

The museum honors Naomi Uemura, who achieved recognition as the first Japanese mountaineer to reach Mount Denali's summit and later disappeared during a winter ascent in 1984.

Through multimedia presentations and regular exhibitions, the museum highlights Japanese mountaineering traditions and exploration achievements from the 20th century.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with last entry permitted 30 minutes before closing time.

Visitors can examine the actual equipment used by Uemura during his 12,000-kilometer dog sled journey across the Arctic Circle in 1976.
