■We will take you to Yamagata Zao, which is difficult to reach by public transportation, and Ginzan Onsen, which exudes the romance of the Taisho era, by chartered bus or jumbo taxi. ■Yamagata Zao Ropeway What made Zao famous worldwide is the existence of "frost-covered trees," also known as snow monsters (scientific name: ice monsters). Looking at the silvery frost-covered trees from the ropeway window is enough to make you cheer. Even now, when the environment is in place to easily view them, depending on the weather, you may not be able to see them. This is also the harshness of nature that creates the frost-covered trees. Enjoy the grand panorama from the ropeway. *A separate fare of 3,800 yen will be charged. ■Ginzan Onsen Ginzan Onsen is said to be the model for popular Japanese anime! The nostalgic, beautiful townscape is beautiful no matter where you look, and there are plenty of photo spots. The hot spring town is full of cafes, places to eat, and souvenir shops, so you can have a fun time. If you get tired of walking, you can take a break on the free scaffolding along the Ginzan River. The hot spring water is sourced directly from the same hot springs as the other inns, so it has excellent health benefits! When you visit, be sure to bring a towel or handkerchief to wipe your feet with. *Shuttle bus fare of 500 yen will be charged separately. ■Cherry Land Sagae This is the largest tourist product center in the prefecture where you can get souvenirs from all over the prefecture! At Sakuranbo Kaikan, located on the same premises, gelato made with local fruits such as cherries and other local specialties is very popular!

[Until March 20th] Once the autumn leaves have finished, the 2025 winter season is finally upon us! This is a snow trekking trip to the frozen waterfall known as Hyobaku in Zao, Yamagata. Every winter, the entire huge waterfall freezes over, creating a frozen waterfall about 30 meters high and several tens of meters wide. Its power cannot be conveyed in a photo. This area, which has long attracted ice climbing enthusiasts, is called the Ice Garden, and is filled with a world of ice that is like something out of a movie. In search of unknown, spectacular views, step into the world of ice that spreads across Senninzawa Ice Garden. On the way there, head to the end of the lift at Zao Liza World Ski Resort, mainly going downhill to reach the frozen waterfall. 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. Once you arrive, it's time for lunch while watching the icefall. The guide will provide you with hot water, so please bring a lunch to warm you up, such as instant noodles. We will also set up a tent-type toilet during lunch, so you can use the restroom. You can hydrate without worrying about the toilet. After enjoying the mysterious world of ice, you will climb back up the steep slope and change into snowshoes. You can walk on the fluffy new snow, slide on your buttocks, and on the way back, you will walk down to the ski resort without using the lift. Those who are new to snow mountain climbing can participate, but you will need the stamina to walk for more than four hours on your own feet with a backpack on. There are some steep descents and climbs. *If the route to the icefall cannot be safely walked due to field conditions, we may change to a walk around the area on snowshoes. <Equipment> Snowshoes: ATLAS Helium BC 23,26 (Mountain snowshoes with innovative lightness and portability) Poles: Montbell Fall Line Poles (Lightweight poles for backcountry) Light crampons: Montbell Snow Spikes 10 (Required for steep slopes up to the icefall) Helmet: Montbell Alpine Helmet (Wear when approaching the icefall.
