The metal frame and the part called the deck attached to the inside generate buoyancy on the snow, so you can walk and run comfortably. Even when climbing up and down, there is a claw called "crampons" on the back that sticks in the snow, so you won't suddenly start skiing like skiing!
Sometimes I stop and take a closer look at the dead trees, or chase after the footprints of animals. If you are lucky, you may meet wild animals. Also, you can dive to the fullest with sliders and snow, and get serious about being covered with snow. It is a charming tour that combines healing and play.
If you get a little tired, take a rest on the snow. A warm drink in the quiet forest is exceptional! Staff who know everything about Minakami will guide you to a deep nature experience! The guide is not just a guide, but also guides customers to various things in nature. The tour includes insurance, so we will guide you safely until the end.
