Description

Located in the Negano prefecture of Japan, in the midst of the sensational Japan Alps, Hakuba is a famed resort area full of amazing slopes.

On this trip, I would like to give you the chance to ski on the beautiful slopes of Hakuba with a professional, freeride world qualifier skier.

There are many advantages that come with skiing with a pro. For instance, you will get to see how a professional chooses their runs, then, you will get to see how they ski on them. You will get to see the little details that only years and years of experience can provide. I will also gladly give you tips and advice throughout the day, or days, of this trip as well. However, it is important to keep in mind that I am not a guide, or instructor. Instead, my goal on this trip is for you to have a great time on the slopes, while also learning a thing or two along the way.

This trip is not for beginners. Instead, it is for experienced skiers that are looking for a new way to enjoy skiing.

I know you’ll have a great time on the slopes of Hakuba. And I would be happy to help you enjoy them as much as possible. So if you would like to ski with a pro in one of the most beautiful resort areas of Japan, just send a request. I look forward to hearing from you.

I also offer a group version of this trip that you can enjoy here.

About the guide: Ayako

Ayako

FWQ Athlete

- Skier
- 3rd in Women's Freeride Skiing Japan (57th in World Ranking)
- Residence: Tokyo
- English level: Native

I was born in Tokyo but have been based in Whistler, BC in Canada since high school. I moved in order to compete more regularly in Junior freeriding competitions. At the moment, I am traveling around the globe as I compete in the FWQ Tour. I am currently ranked 3rd in Japan.

In my spare time, I enjoy sharing my passion for freeriding with anyone and everyone who is interested in winter sports, including children. I love seeing people discover freeriding and realize how accessible it actually is.

When I am home in Japan, I typically ride in Hakuba and Echigo Yuzawa, as well as Sapporo and Asahidake in Hokkaido. I have been skiing around Hokkaido since I was 6 years old, and this is the place that first opened my eyes to freeriding. I would love to share it with you.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
