Plan description

Mt. Takamine is set as a beginner's course. The first climb is a steep slope, but it is a relatively gentle hike along the ridge. Even though it's a beginner's course, the view from the top of the mountain is outstanding! You can see the Northern Alps covered in snow, the Central and Southern Alps, Mt. Yatsugatake, and depending on the weather, you can even see Mt. Fuji. In particular, Mt. Takamine has a lot of experiences that can only be enjoyed when it is snowing! The gentle road along the ridge goes over the snow cornices, the food marks of animals, the footprints of walking, and so on. It's a small discovery, but it's a great pleasure to find it in nature or by yourself! This is the most popular program with the most applications. The course is designed for beginners, so it's not hard to walk, so you can feel the presence of animals and the atmosphere of nature.

Plenty of time!

We have plenty of time for you to enjoy, so you can enjoy the winter nature observation slowly and leisurely with the guide. You can feel the signs of animals more in winter than in summer, such as animal footprints and food tracks.
