Description

Join a group for a day to experience the best ski of Hakuba in the company of a pro. It will be a unique experience to have a pro skier show you around and give you some tips during a fun day!

I am 1st in the Freeride World Qualifier ranking in Japan, and 51st in the world. I have skied all around the world during this competition. But one of the things I enjoy the most is to go back to Hakuba, where I’m from, and ski in my favourite spots!

Hakuba is located in the Nagano Prefecture, partly in the Chūbu-Sangaku National Park. The Hakuba Valley, in the Northern Japan Alps, has been a world-renowned ski destination since the 1998 Winter Olympics were held in Nagano.

There are 9 ski resorts in the area which offer over 130 km of pistes. So, as you can imagine, there is something for all levels and tastes! The idea during this day is to take you to the best ski terrain depending on the conditions. I know the terrain really well since I have skied here for many years.

Please note that as I am not a ski instructor, we will stay within the limits of the ski resort. The goal of the day is to have fun! And of course, I will share with you my pro skiing tips, and show you how I choose the best lines.

You need to be at least an intermediate skier to participate. Furthermore, it is important that you know your boundaries and ski at your own level. Of course, I will adjust to it.

As there are no pre-determined dates, I will put together groups on an on-demand basis.

If you have any further doubts don’t hesitate to ask me! I can also recommend other activities in Hakuba to complete your trip. Just let me know if you want information about the best restaurants or onsens, for example.

Want to join me for a day in Hakuba? Then please request to book this trip! It will be my pleasure to share a day with you in this place I love so much. And if you only have a morning or afternoon available, check out this half-day option.

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

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.
