    Graduation trip with friends The guide was very calm and kind. We heard a lot about Hokkaido in the car on the way to the experience location. The location was Asahiyama, about 20 minutes by car from Sapporo city. The air is very clear. We didn't just walk around the area, but we also talked about various things related to the forest. Of course, the various activities we did with snowshoes, which I'd never used before, were very interesting and fun. I was especially scared of running down the slope, but it was fun. You can take photos yourself, but the guide will also take photos and videos and send them to you via Air Drop at the end of the activity. This is a highly recommended activity that allows you to experience something out of the ordinary.   (This review has been machine translated into English)
  • Snow Forest Snowshoe Trekking Tour

    Participants: Friends Location: Asahiyama, Sapporo Guide's impression: In a word, kind and polite Memorable experiences: 1. There was about 30cm of fresh snow, so I stretched my body straight and stretched both arms out to the sides and fell backwards. The snow was soft, so it didn't hurt at all. I really felt how soft the snow was. 2. While lying on the fresh snow, I moved both arms up and down on the snow. After I got up, the snow left a mark like an angel lying down. 3. I ran down the slope while wearing snowshoes. It seems easy, but it was surprisingly difficult. 4. Under a snow-covered tree, I hit the branch with my walking stick and poured snow over my head. 5. The guide took photos and videos of various experiences. He also edited them with music and sent them to me by email. He also explained the birds and plants in the mountains, so it was a very good experience and a memorable one.   (This review has been machine translated into English)
