Description

Visiting Kansai in Japan is a treat for anybody who gets the chance. The sites, the people, the food and the scenery is absolutely stunning. I would definitely recommend doing it if you haven’t already. And this half-day, private, snowboarding adventure would definitely be a great addition to your trip. During this excursion, I would like to give you the chance to enjoy the amazing slopes of the area. I would also like to give you the chance to enjoy those slopes with a freeride world qualifier snowboarder!

This trip is not for beginners. It is also not for people who are learning, or want to learn how to snowboard. Instead, this trip is for experienced snowboarders who are looking for a unique and exciting riding experience. Which is exactly what you will get, as you will be riding with a pro.

I will show you and tell you what I know about snowboarding, in hopes it will improve your existing skills. But the real purpose of this trip is for you to have a great experience. I want you to have a lot of fun, so as your vacation continues, you can always fondly look back upon your snowboarding experience.

Kansai is worth a visit under any circumstance. And I believe this trip will only provide more added incentive to come. So if you want to ride with a professional on the slopes in one of Japan’s most famous regions, just send a request.

I also offer a full day snowboarding trip in the Tohoku area of northern Japan.

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.
