This is a limited-time special plan for 2024, and is a small-group tour limited to a maximum of 5 people! Aren't you worried about planning an outdoor activity that might tire you out on your precious day off? If you are worried that mountain biking is not for you, or that cycling is not physically viable, we recommend this special experience plan! Unlike regular tours, there is no climbing. (You just go down) As you can see in the picture, you will be riding a mountain bike through a "real forest" that you can't experience on other tours, so even those who are not physically fit can rest assured. The time includes a simple explanation of how to ride and preparations before departure, so the actual riding time is about 1 hour from the time of gathering to the time of returning, and it will be completed within 2 hours (if everything goes smoothly, it will be about 1 hour and 45 minutes). Moreover, the rental set is free, so you can experience MTB empty-handed! Also, this plan is a fully private reservation. This is a special plan for this year only, with limited numbers and numbers, because this tour is a bargain at this time of year. Unlike other tours, you will not be joining with other customers, so you can enjoy it at your own pace! *Please note* (If a child under 140cm tall is participating, we do not have a bicycle that is suitable for the course, so you will need to bring a bicycle that you are used to riding. For this plan, rentals start from XS size 26 inches. (Anyone with a height of about 140cm can ride it, and even people around 135cm can ride it if they are used to riding bicycles.) *There are no rental bicycles under 26 inches. This is because it is difficult to ride a bicycle with small tires in a real forest. *In addition, "being able to stand on the pedals" and "being able to brake by holding the brake lever with your hand" are also guidelines for participating in the tour safely. However, even if you do not meet these conditions, if you are interested in participating, please feel free to contact us! We will consult with you as much as possible! If you have the desire, we can do something! Maybe?! Maybe^^

★What is a fat bike? It is a mountain bike that evolved for the purpose of riding on snow. On this tour, you will be cycling along snow-white ski slopes. There is no such thing as ``slipping or brake failure'' that everyone tends to worry about! The reason for this is that the tire width is about 12cm, which means it has a large footprint on the snow, and it is equipped with a disc brake, which is the same system as a car. Our fat bikes are stocked with popular models from top bicycle manufacturers, and are maintained in good condition by our guides who are qualified bicycle safety mechanics. We have 20 inches for children who are over 130cm tall, 24 inches for juniors, and 26 inches for adults. You can also invite your family and friends to participate. On this tour, a dedicated guide will accompany you and carefully explain how to run and play, so even first-timers can feel at ease! There is a warm rest house and restrooms nearby, so children can participate with peace of mind.

Many people are surprised that general snowshoe tours are more physically taxing than they expected, so we thought, "Can we have a more casual and easy way to experience a snowy forest?" From that point of view, we developed a plan that does not involve climbing, is not physically taxing, feels like a walk, and is a short plan to "experience a real snowy forest" (I know that sounds a bit exaggerated, lol). The time is quite leisurely and can be completed within 1.5 hours (adults who walk fast can finish in about an hour). Although it is a walk-like time and distance, you will experience a real and authentic forest. You can enjoy a short time of trekking in a real forest while taking photos. *Please note* Since you will be walking in snow, please wear shoes that can walk in snow. (You can't walk in snow in normal shoes) I think the easiest way to move around is to wear ski wear and rubber boots (please see the participants' photos). Rubber boots that don't make your toes cold (you can wear them as is, but it will be more comfortable if you put in warm insoles, even simple ones sold at 100 yen stores. It is also better if the boots are long so that snow doesn't get in. If the snow is quite deep, we will rent snowshoes for free, so I think it would be best to participate in snow boots or rubber boots.) Also, if you have your own snowshoes or poles, it will be "even" more comfortable if you bring them. (Of course, it's okay if you don't)
