Overview

Our snowshoeing tour at the snow-covered Togakushi Shrine is a unique experience available only during a three-month period each year. Togakushi Shrine is a renowned destination for tourists, but without joining a guided tour, navigating the area can be more challenging, and you may miss many attractions while increasing the risks associated with outdoor activities in nature.

To ensure a smooth, enjoyable, and safe experience, we provide multilingual guiding for our clients. Hama and Yuki, both active registered nurses and UIMLA-certified hiking guides, are fluent in English, with Yuki also speaking Mandarin Chinese to assist native Chinese-speaking clients.

We warmly welcome you to this winter wonderland for an unforgettable one-day experience that combines the beauty of authentic Japanese culture with the magic of the snow-covered landscape.
