[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!

In winter, Shiretoko's famous waterfall, Furepe Falls, turns into blue icicles, and the spray of the falls, blown by the north wind, creates a mysterious shape. Behind Furepe Falls, the silvery Shiretoko mountain range stands, and during the drift ice season from late January to early March, a majestic drift ice field spreads out below. To reach Furepe Falls, you will put on snowshoes (Western snow shoes) and walk freely through the forest, searching for forest creatures and their traces. Places that are difficult to access from spring to autumn become walkable thanks to snow and snowshoes, so this tour is characterized by many new discoveries. Enjoy the spectacular scenery that is typical of Shiretoko and the snowshoeing experience together. *Due to the lack of sufficient snowfall from early to late December and late March, there is a high possibility that you will be guided in boots instead of snowshoes. In that case, we will guide you to the "Furepe Falls Nature Walk" tour in the same area during the snow-free season (adults: 3,100 yen, children: 2,000 yen). Thank you for your understanding.

The greatest feature of this tour is that you can enjoy the untouched nature of Shiretoko on snowshoes in areas that do not have well-maintained walking trails and still retain their pristine nature. During the tour, you can stop at a viewpoint with a spectacular view of the tip of the Shiretoko Peninsula, where you can see the hidden waterfalls that flow from the cliffs, frozen by the freezing cold. During the drift ice season, you will be amazed by the overwhelming beauty of the Okhotsk Sea covered in drift ice, and the silvery white Shiretoko Mountains towering behind the cliffs. On this tour, you will have a high chance of encountering wild animals such as Ezo deer and Ezo red foxes, so you can enjoy the winter nature of Shiretoko to the fullest. *Due to the lack of sufficient snowfall from early to late December and late March, there is a high possibility that you will be guided in boots instead of snowshoes. In that case, we will guide you to the same area tour in the snow-free season, "Shiretoko Primeval Forest & Spectacular Cliffs Trekking" (Adults: 5,100 yen, Children: 2,600 yen).

This special tour, only available in winter, involves walking through the forest at night on snowshoes. As you get used to the darkness and walk relying as much as possible only on your own eyes, the light of the snow, and the light of the stars, you will have a strange feeling as if a primitive power that had been sleeping inside you has returned. The sound of your feet crunching on the snow echoes through the silent forest at night, creating a tense atmosphere that is unique to this tour. If there is no moonlight and no clouds, countless stars will twinkle in the sky and you can enjoy stargazing. On the other hand, during a full moon, you can appreciate the beauty and brightness of the moon anew. Why not spend a fantastic night in Shiretoko on this tour?
