About this experience
Experience local knowledge of the trails around Sapporo. Learn how to travel in snow with snowshoes and enjoy the great outdoors. Unlike skiing and snowboarding, it's an accessible activity for almost everyone and allows for exploration in areas that are inaccessible by other means. Before the hike commences, you will be provided with some helpful information to assist you with moving in a cold environment such as pacing to conserve energy, observing the route ahead, and evaluating the best route to minimize hazards. Learn about nature and navigation skills in a winter environment, enjoy a hearty meal outside for lunch while experiencing the wilderness at a slower, more intimate pace amidst the quiet beauty of the snow-covered terrain.
