Otaru is a tourist destination that represents Hokkaido. If you move a little away from the center, you will find a vast expanse of snowy nature. A nature guide will lead you through the Otaru forest in winter wearing Western snowshoes called snowshoes. The winter forest is full of fun elements such as fluffy powder snow, the sound of animal footsteps, bird watching, and snow slides. With snowshoes, you can walk anywhere you want, even in places where the snow is so deep that you would normally not be able to go into them. No experience or skill required. It can be easily enjoyed by everyone from children to the elderly. During the tour, we set up a simple tent and had tea time! Drinking hot drinks in the midst of nature has a special taste. We provide free transportation to and from Otaru Station. There are two half-day tours a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. This tour is recommended for those who want to experience snowshoeing in Hokkaido. This guided tour can be given in English.
Special equipment such as snowshoes and poles can be rented for free. In addition to the above, goggles, waterproof outerwear, and waterproof snow boots can be rented for a fee. If you wish to rent for a fee, please let us know the size and number of men and women at the time of application. The rental fee below is for each item. Ski goggles (free size): 500 yen Thermal/waterproof wear top and bottom set (S~LL size) 2000 yen Cold/waterproof shoes (21~29cm) 2000 yen
We provide free transportation from Otaru Station. You can participate by public transportation. Pick-up and drop-off from accommodations around Otaru Station is also possible.
The tour is a small group and provides personalized support. The number of groups is up to 2 and the capacity is up to 5 people. As a measure against coronavirus, alcohol disinfectants and disposable masks are installed in the shuttle car.
