English Version
Karuizawa Ohashi Bridge is widely rumored to be a well-known suicide spot. The bridge has a tall fence topped with barbed wire, but according to local stories, people have still climbed over it, and the incidents have not completely stopped.
The drop is said to be about 90 meters, and some believe that vengeful spirits drift through the open space below. Even in the Karuizawa area, the bridge is described as an unusually unsettling sight. One rumor claims that the presence of the spirits of those who died there is what makes the place feel so dangerous.
There are also said to be frequent traffic accidents in the surrounding area. For people who believe the rumors, the explanation is that resentment and sorrow tend to gather in large, enclosed-feeling spaces like this one.
The location is associated with the area around Mozawa, Miyota Town, Kitasaku District, Nagano Prefecture.
If you visit, do so only from safe, legal public areas. Do not climb fences, cross barriers, stop in dangerous places, or visit at night if visibility is poor. If the topic of suicide feels personal or urgent, please reach out to local emergency services or a crisis hotline in your country.

自殺の名所として名高く、橋には有刺鉄線付きの高いフェンスが設けられているが、それを乗り越えて自殺者が後をたたないとのこと。落差も90mと大きく、この空間に怨霊が漂っていると言われている。軽井沢の中でも異様な光景に写る軽井沢大橋は自殺しやすい場所といわれ、その自殺者の霊が漂っている事が原因と言われている。周辺での交通事故も絶えないとのこと。やはり一定の閉ざされた、広い空間には怨念が漂いやすいという噂は本当に違いない。長野県北佐久郡御代田町茂沢379?
