Japan guards some of the finest spots for skiing on Earth. And of course, a millenary culture that invites every explorer to discover. This unique private tour will give you the chance to explore this fascinating country and its unrivalled skiing terrain. So, you’ll be able to venture through places very few ever have the chance to visit.
We will be exploring the Shimamaki area in the Karibayama mountain range, in Hokkaido and very close to the Sea of Japan. Here, you’ll find a mix of descents with spaced trees, open alpine bowls and steep ridges. You’ll also run into descents that range 15 to 35 degrees, at least 3 more than an average slope on a ski resort. And, you’ll see wonderful things around you, like gladed and covered in snow birch forests. Or you can find charming meadows that look like they are out of a postcard!
Additionally, the catskiing experience is just wonderful! Because you’ll reach places otherwise almost impossible to get to. And, you’ll save all your energy for all the thrilling descents ahead of you.
Also, this trip is private. Thus, you will enjoy most of the places just for yourself and your group. There won’t be overcrowded spots like in some ski resorts. On the contrary, you’ll feel like the mountain is just for you.
We’ve skied up to 13 runs, the equivalent of 6.500 meters in a day. But, the amount of vertical terrain and number of runs will depend on avalanche and weather conditions.
So if you want an adventure in an exclusive place, search no more. Send me a request and I’ll promise it will be a trip you won’t forget! Want to explore a different part of the world? Check out this 7-day heliboarding trip in Alaska.

I had a very good experience booking the hike through Explore-Share. Communication with the team was prompt and clear and the booking process was seamless. The trip itself was also just perfect. Uroš was a fantastic guide, highly skilled and talented. The hike felt safe at all times, even on more exposed routes, thanks to him. He was always up to date on the weather forecast and planned the days around it, checked the conditions on the route ahead of me, if needed, discussed and adapted the routes to my level and always made sure I was safe and comfortable. I highly recommend him, as well as Explore-Share.

Explore Share is a really usefull website that has a great overview of reviewed guides for a (in our case) hiking/climbing trip. During the booking I got assigned an assistent for Explore Share that helped solve questions that I might have. Great customer service, and I will come back again.

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned a lot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!

It's the 2nd time we have been booking with Explore-Share. The booking was super easy and both Explore-Share and the guide were fast in their responses. We did rafting as a family with 3 kids for the first time in Slovenia. The guide (José) was super nice. He was doing everything he could to make everyone at ease with rafting (he gave clear explanations), have a great team spirit (we were joined by 2 other girls) and have a good time. We had lots of fun and the nature there is so beautiful. Thank you Explore-share and Soca splash for the great afternoon! I would recommend this activity to anyone without a doubt. My kids immediately told me they want to do rafting again soon !"
