1-day snowshoe hike in Minakami

Satoshi Suzuki

The Gunma prefecture in Japan is a wonderful area full of beautiful hot springs, ski resorts and the Kusatsu-Shirane volcano (2,171m). And over the course of a fun and exciting day, we will enjoy a snowshoe tour through this amazing place.

Starting at Karuizawa station in the morning, we will meet and then drive for approximately one hour to the starting point of our adventure. When we arrive, we will take a ropeway to the snow fields. On the fields, with snowshoes clasped to our feet, we will tour through the area.

After touring through the fields of white powder, we will reach Mount Kusatsu-Shirane. This amazing, active volcano is a sight to behold. There are a number of routes we can take to the summit, all of which are not too difficult. From the summit of this magnificent volcano, you will be able to see its multiple cones, and multiple crater lakes. The largest of those lakes is Yugama. This acidic, turquoise coloured lake has patches of yellow sulfer floating on top. The lake's combination of colours is beautiful and unforgettable.

After the Kusatsu-Shirane volcano, we will go to the Kusatsu Onsen. This famous hot spring acts as the perfect conclusion to this amazing tour. The warm water will relax your body and comfort you while you recall all you've seen and done throughout the day.

I know you will greatly enjoy exploring the Gunma area, while admiring the beautiful Kusatsu-Shirane volcano, and relaxing in the Kusatsu Onsen. If you would like to join me, please send me a request.

I can also lead you on another <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/shigakogen-japan-guided-snowshoe-tour/">1-day snowshoe tour</a> in the famed Shigakogen highlands in Nagano as well.
