Description

Follow me to one of the most hypnotizing places for skiing in Japan: Hakuba. Allow me to show the places that I like the most in this skiing paradise in the Japan Alps.

Hakuba is so amazing, it hosted the winter Olympic games in 1998. This dazzling place offers breathtaking views of the whole region and the Japan Alps. Also, it is very easy to access from Tokyo, alongside with other major cities in the country.

What’s more the snowfall each season is about 11 meters. Thus, the fresh snow never ends here, covering everything with a pristine layer of light dry powder ideal for the best powder hounds. Thus it is the perfect place for this unique skiing adventure.

Even though it is not a difficult place to ski through, I am not an instructor. Therefore, in order to make the most of this trip you should at least have an intermediate level. However, if you are an advanced skier, I know the perfect places to ride together, where you can test your skills.

But no matter your skiing level, here you’ll find thrilling slopes and fantastic descents. And, we will be accompanied by some of the most marvellous sceneries in the whole country.

So don’t miss out on this exclusive opportunity to explore the mesmerizing landscapes of Hakuba. I promise it will be a trip you won’t be able to forget.

You can also check this private, half-day skiing trip in Echigo Yuzawa if you are looking to explore the country more.

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.
