Description

The Hakuba valley in Japan is filled with so many fantastic skiing spots that you can easily spend several days exploring them. Hence why I am happy to offer this particular opportunity that can last for one or more days if you wish.

During this private trip, you will get to ski with me, the fourth ranked FWQ skier in all of Japan. You will get to have fun with a local rider. You will get to push your own riding level and you will get to learn new ways of skiing.

Filled with an abundance of deep powder, Hakuba is perfect for skiers of all levels. However, for the purpose of this trip, you must be able to ski at a minimum intermediate level. That is because on this trip the point is not to learn how to ski, or to be introduced to the world of skiing. Instead, the purpose of this trip is to have a great time skiing on the slopes of Hakuba with a local professional who knows those slopes very well. I will also show you around the best spots in the area.

While I am not a ski instructor or a certified ski guide, I will be happy to offer tips and advice. Thus giving you something to practice and develop further after the trip, if you wish, in addition to having an awesome time together.

If you would like to ski on the slopes of Hakuba with a highly ranked, local skier, for one, or several days, this is the trip for you. To be a part of it, all you have to do is send a request.

You can also enjoy a half-day version of this private trip here.

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.
