Get ready to carve through Japan's powder snow on a journey to discover Hakuba, located on Honshu Island, where the mountains reach altitudes of 3,000 meters.
Here, immersed in the majestic Japanese Alps, you'll enjoy unforgettable days. Hakuba is an internationally renowned destination, popular with freeride enthusiasts for the quantity and lightness of its snow. Because of its well-deserved fame, lift-served areas can get crowded, but that's where the true spirit of our trip comes in: by using climbing skins, we'll quickly leave the beaten path behind to venture into wild, uncrowded terrain. As you conquer silent peaks, you'll enjoy spectacular views and untouched descent lines. A variety of itineraries for all tastes, always accompanied by expert guides who will lead you in search of the best snow.
