Aomori City/Enjoy the spectacular view of Mt. Hakkoda and heavy snow experience with snowshoes

A special experience of walking among snow monsters

Snowshoes, also known as Western snowshoes, are snow walking equipment that are worn by attaching them to your own snow boots. You can walk without sinking in the snow, and you can enjoy it even without slipping, so it's safe even for people with no skiing experience. On the tour, take the Hakkoda Ropeway from Sancho Koen Station, change into snowshoes, and walk among the frost-covered trees. The frost-covered trees that appear before your eyes are more impressive than you can imagine. You can feel the harsh yet beautiful nature of Mt. Hakkoda while walking slowly through a world covered in white snow. Furthermore, on a walking tour around Sukayu Onsen Nobori, you can walk on fluffy snow and feel the depth of the snow, which is unique to areas with heavy snowfall.

After walking through the snowy fields, why not stop by Sukayu Onsen in the Hakkoda Mountains? A hot spring that can relieve muscle pain and recover from fatigue is perfect for relaxing after a workout.

Today we will be traveling somewhere to report, mainly focusing on the six prefectures of Tohoku. I love traveling both domestically and internationally, even in my private life.
