[Plan Summary] This is a tour to walk around the beautiful snow scenery of Echigo Yuzawa, a snow resort 70 minutes from Tokyo. Since it is a private tour, you can walk at your own pace. The walking area is deep snow, so you can wear special equipment (snowshoes) and enjoy the snow scenery while walking on the fresh snow. * Echigo Yuzawa is below freezing in winter, so it may be difficult to take pictures with ordinary camera equipment in such a harsh environment. Professional photographers will take pictures using professional equipment and take the best photos. [About the course] The course starts from Little Japan ECHIGO and goes around the foot of Higashitani Mountain. Since you will walk while looking at the scenery and taking pictures, the total time for the experience is about 1 hour. It is a course that even beginners can enjoy. * Courses can be flexibly adapted to the customer's level. [About snowshoes] If you walk on fluffy new snow in regular shoes, you will sink, but by wearing snowshoes, you can walk on the snow without sinking, and you can explore the snowy scenery that is usually not easy to reach. Anyone can enjoy this tour, from those who are new to snow country activities to those who are not good at skiing or snowboarding! [Recommended for] Those who want a special trip! Those who want a memorable experience! Those who want to have an experience that is unique to snow country!
