Let's snowshoeing in the beutiful Togakushi's forest

The mountains of the north Nagano and Myoko are covered with deep snow during the winter. Pond freeze and the trees wear beautiful white robes. The sound of footsteps and breathing of ourselves as we step on the snow in silence, and the footprints of rabbits and foxes that remain on the snow surface. In winter, when bushes are covered with snow, we can freely walk around the forest, and we can also get to see some giant trees, which can only be reached during this time of the year. Let's snowshoe in the precincts of Togakushi Shrine surrounded by pure white snow, make a table with snow and enjoy delicious freshly brewed coffee!

The winter forest is full of fun

When you hear the word "winter forest", you may imagine all the fallen leaves and it may sounds lonely. But that's not the case. There are many surprises and discoveries in the winter forest, such as chasing the footprints of animals, enjoying the snow art created by the wind, and observing winter buds!

Beginners,kids and everybody are welcome

Unlike skiing and snowboarding, snowshoeing is a very familiar sport that anyone can enjoy from the moment they wear it. The pleasure of trampling on fresh snow and going on a pathless snow ground will surely be addictive.

Present photos of your tour memories!

Your guide will take pictures of you during the hike and give them as a memory of your trip after the tour. (Only for those who wish)

We also accept requests for tour locations
