[Nagano, Omachi City Snowshoeing] English and Chinese guided night hike through the snowy fields under the starry sky - ages 6 and up

It's frigid! Seeing the stars in the clear night sky is sure to be a memorable experience! Even a blizzard night is amazing! Experience the frigid snowfields at night on snowshoes or snowjiks. While snowshoe tours are popular, snowjiks are actually easier to walk on. In Japan, we also have claw-shaped snowjiks (not used on tours). A must-have in Japan's snow country is simply "amazing." The tour will take place once the snow depth reaches 50 cm and the undergrowth is hidden by snow. The 2025 Starry Sky: The Geminid meteor shower will peak around 5:00 PM on December 14th (the best viewing times are from late night on the 13th to early morning on the 14th and from late night on the 14th to early morning on the 15th). The 2026 Starry Sky: The first third of the 2026 New Moon and the first quarter of the 2026 Full Moon will see the Quadrantid meteor shower peak. (The moon is bright and the conditions are poor.) January 19th is a new moon. February 2nd is a full moon. February 17th is a new moon. March 3rd is a full moon (worm moon). Total lunar eclipse is March 19th. Around 11 PM on December 14th, the Geminid meteor shower will peak (the best viewing time is from late night on the 14th to the early morning of the 15th). December 24th is a full moon (cold moon) (super moon). This is the full moon closest to Earth in 2026.

On a moonlit night, the moonlight reveals a pure white snowfield and a male figure of the Northern Alps in the distance. At night when the stars are visible, the giant Orion tells a myth with a scary force overhead. This is another great night in a snowstorm! Hot coffee on a snowstorm night is the best! Your body and soul will be hot. This feeling of happiness is amazing!

Snowshoes and snowshoes are tools for walking on the snow that even beginners can easily use. If you are confident in your physical strength, you can enjoy it from children to the elderly. You can walk, see, feel, and walk around with your own feet, so you will be able to quickly notice and enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery.

If you request before the tour departs, you can experience snowshoes and snowshoes for a while. During the tour, you will be asked to choose between snowshoes and snowshoes to wear.
