During this skiing tour, glide over Japan’s finest powder snow in a snowcat (vehicle designed for moving on snow). Hachimantai is the “holy land” for powder snow, and home to the driest snow on the main island of Japan. Skiers will be delighted by the varied topography and the striking beauty of the natural formations, such as the juhyo snow monsters (frost covered trees). Experience the Japan-quality powder snow that draws skiers to Asia.

In this tour, a local Japanese guide who is deeply familiar with the area will guide you to the best course for enjoying the snow based on the conditions that day using the snowcat. (The guide can speak basic conversational English.) This service is available from January through March.
