backcountry ski tours japan

We have been back country skiing in Hokkaido for 28 years and pioneered resort and back country skiing commercial tours here in 1984. Our unmatched knowledge and expertise ensures you get the very best of the Hokkaido powder and back country experience. Our tours combine the best back country powder, wilderness, hot spring baths, superb accommodations and bilingual escorts. As well as our long term destinations of Furano, Asahi Dake, Kamui and Tokachi, for 2010 we are the first to introduce new back country skiing and lifted destinations that will set your heart racing. Be some of the first foreign skiers to explore the superb powder and stunning alpine vistas of Sounkyo, Nukabira and Kitta Taisetsu. Join us for the powder skiing experience of a lifetime.

These fully escorted tours are powder extravaganzas for back country skiers. Get your ski legs at the ski resorts, with maximum vertical on these powdery lift assisted slopes before heading for the back country skiing delights of central Hokkaido.

You are fully escorted throughout with a bilingual escort/back country guide who smooths the way for you to enjoy your skiing to the maximum. No hassles.

Our accommodation is uniquely Japanese throughout with a fusion of superb western and Japanese foods & facilities. They also provide hot spring baths, some with outside baths or ‘rotenburo’.
