Head to Hokkaido this winter for a sublime Sapporo ski touring adventure!

This northerly Japanese island boasts some of the best backcountry ski touring conditions anywhere on earth!

Its unique geographical location and climate means that about 10 meters (32 feet) of dry and high-quality powder falls on the island’s mountain slopes each winter.

Over the course of our day together, we’ll scout out the perfect spot and enjoy some of the best skiing of our lives!

The adventure begins after we meet up at 8 am and head out into the center of the island. Depending on weather and snow conditions, we’ll decide where the best place to ski is and drive out to the trailhead.

Weather permitting, we’ll put on our skins and climb up a stunning mountain peak, before plunging back down through the finest powder found anywhere on earth. (If the weather does not cooperate, then we will head out somewhere with a ski lift.)

We’ll stay out on the slopes all day, returning back to our pick up point at about 5 pm.

Among the many incredible spots we will be able to go are the Central Hokkaido area (Jozankei, Teine, Otaru and Niseko) or the Furano Asahikawa area (around Furanodake and Asahidake).

Don’t ask me to pick my favourite as they are all world-class backcountry skiing spots and will provide us with hours of great skiing.

By the time, we drop you back off at the starting point, you will already be planning your next trip to this incredible part of the world!

So what are you waiting for? Book now for the Sapporo ski touring adventure of a lifetime!
