Nomadic Ski Touring in Japan

Touring for Deep Powder

We believe that the best way to access Japan’s light powder is via ski touring as you can avoid the crowds and find the hidden powder stashes!

Incredibly Consistent Powder

Cold temperatures and incredibly regular snowfalls combine to deliver some of the lightest powder on the planet. Our nomadic ski touring trips include skiing in a number of different locations. Typically this will include resorts such as Hakkoda and Hyakuzava with opportunities to ski volcanic peaks such as Iwakai-San, although our itineraries do vary each season.

Japanese Living

Accommodation is in a string of local guest houses which offer basic but comfy traditional Japanese lodging, and which allows you to indulge in a little of the local culture.
