★What is a snowshoe experience?★ It is an experience of walking on snow wearing "Western snowshoes" that allow you to easily walk on deep snow that is difficult to walk on with shoes.

Even those who are not physically fit can enjoy it ♪ Depending on the snow conditions, you can sled down the slopes! Run through the snow fields! Jump into the snow! Why not leave the slopes and enter nature to try snowshoeing?

大人2名と犬(大、中、小)3匹で初めてスノーシューを体験しました! 山の上まで行くとノーリードで犬たちが走り回って楽しめました! 一緒にソリも使って滑ったり、ものすごく楽しかったです! 担当の方も優しく明るい方で楽しかったです! 小型犬のわんちゃんは寒いかなと3枚着込みましたが、走り回ってる間震えることもなく楽しそうにしてました! やっぱり犬用のスノーウェアがよかったみたいです! 中型犬のわんちゃんは人見知りと怖がりで心配してたのですが、ずっと尻尾を振って楽しそうにしてました! なかなか雪と戯れることも少ない地域に住んでるので帰りは大型犬のわんちゃんが帰りたくなくて車の中に入ってくれませんでした(笑) 画質の良い写真もたくさん取ってくれてまたすぐに行きたいなぁと思いました! とても楽しかったです!ありがとうございました!

The end of the second lift is a field of frost-covered trees lined with large ice monsters. You can also enjoy viewing the frost-covered trees. Put on crampons from the end of the lift and trek for about an hour to Senninzawa Ice Garden. Rental snowshoes and other lightweight gear were introduced two seasons ago.

This snowshoeing tour was one of the best things I did in Japan, even as a foreigner. All the guides I was with spoke very good English and were super knowledgeable and fun to talk to. They responded quickly to my queries about transport to Zao Liza World (which can be accessed by bus from Yamagata if well timed), and details about the experience. The equipment is high quality and very fun to learn to use. The scenery and waterfall is very impressive. Overall, value for money and fun is fantastic and I would absolutely recommend this to anyone travelling in Japan.

Early morning snow hike tour for a limited time only. *Although it is aimed at people with strong legs, there is no problem even if you have no experience climbing snowy mountains. *There is also a river crossing. This view only lasted for 3 weeks! ! Unryu Valley, one of the most spectacular views in Japan that you should visit at least once in Nikko in winter, is located at an altitude of approximately 1,400m.In the depths of winter, the waterfall completely freezes and becomes a 120m-long icefall, at the entrance of the valley. The abundant fresh water creates an ice curtain that covers the entire wall, and countless icicles appear, creating a scenery called an ice temple. English Guide Available
