[January to March] Snow trekking to the frozen waterfall called Hyobaku in Zao, Yamagata. Every winter, the entire huge waterfall freezes, 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 a world of ice like in a movie. Step into the frozen world of Senninzawa Ice Garden in search of unknown spectacular views. On the way there, head downhill from the end of the lift at Zao Liza World Ski Resort. 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 frozen waterfall. The guide will provide hot water, so please bring a lunch such as instant noodles to warm you up. A tent-type toilet will also be set up 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.

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.
