Description

Also known as Taisetsuzan, Daisetsuzan is the largest national park in Japan. And, for one or several days if you wish, I would like to guide you on a hiking adventure through this outstanding park.

Located on the island of Hokkaido, surrounded by gorgeous mountains, there is a great deal of amazing things to see within the Daisetsuzan National Park. In fact, you will get to see the highest peak in all of Hokkaido during this trip: Asahidake (2,290m).

During the summer months, the park is absolutely gorgeous. Full of lush flowers and vibrant fauna along with a mesmerizing background of peaks, you will be in a constant state of awe. Furthermore, there is plenty of wildlife as well, including bears, foxes and much more.

Our expert guide knows the park inside and out and will tailor a one-day trekking adventure just for you—based on your interests, fitness level, season, and weather conditions. Share your preferences, and we’ll craft the perfect outdoor experience for you!

What people are saying about Daiki

William

Daiki speaks English and has good communication. We discussed plans via email and WhatsApp ahead of the trip to pick the best location and itinerary to suit our group. He was waiting for us at the meeting point at the arranged time to start the tour. The pace was good to suit our speed. He found the best snow for several descents through the day in different lines on a similar aspect. During the day there was an issue with snow on the skin glue. Daiki helped clean the snow off and came to the rescue with a ski band to hold the skin to the ski for ascending. We would be happy to ski again with Daiki in future.

Had a great time Daiki. Very nice and knowledgeable guide. Showed us beautiful skiing areas in Hokkaido. Would definitely recommend as a ski/mountain guide. Great job!!!

I have now toured with Daike on a few days . He is very professional . He speaks good enough English to be confident that we understand each other and all his instructions . He is very safe and well organised in the back country . It seemed to us that his only focus was to bring us back safe and to make sure what ever it took to make our day as good as it could be . He even takes a crap line when he goes down first to check Safty of slope so that we always got a clean line . Super nice knowable guide .

Daiki is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met - and one of the best guides I’ve ever used in 21 years of coming to japow .. he goes out of his way to make the day an unforgettable experience and has safety as a number 1 priority .. You won’t regret booking Daiki -number 1 in Japan ✅
