* Enjoy a Japanese backcountry skiing adventure in the springtime.
* Relax at the local onsen (hotsprings) after an exhilarating day out in the snow.
* Experience authentic local Japanese culture and cuisine.
We will begin our trip by meeting at Ougisawa station around 8 am. From there, we will take a 1 and 1/2 hour bus and cable car transfer to Tateyama. After a day of unforgettable skiing, we will spend the night at a mountain hut with access to typical Onsen hot springs. The next day, we will enjoy some more fun out in the snow until around 3 pm. We will return to Ougisawa station at 5 pm.
Keep in mind that we will spend around 2-3 hours climbing with a 600m elevation gain. Therefore, you will need a good fitness level. However, I will be happy to tailor the adventure to suit your preferences. Additionally, keep in mind that you will need prior ski touring experience as well as be able to handle your own equipment (climbing skins, ski touring boot, ski crampons). Of course, I will be there to guide you every step of the way.
