Nozawa Onsen Tours Guide and Owner

About

Explore the silvery white world of the Shinetsu region–such as Nozawa Onsen, Motto Kogen, and Nabekura Kogen–and other areas with heavy snowfall. We will be using completely new snow hiking gear that doesn’t require special boots. After being briefed on the equipment, we will quickly put on our gear and head into the forest. Once you get used to it, you can try out a few slides and get going to where you want to go. The ascent is easy and the descent is gradual.
