WHY THIS JOURNEY

Four Hokkaido Moments from Volcanic Steam to Powder Lines

Volcanic Noboribetsu and Mount Usu, a Lake Toya onsen stay, snowy Otaru streets and Sapporo ski terrain shape a Hokkaido journey with both energy and warmth.

THE HOKKAIDO POWDER EDIT

Sapporo Kokusai Powder Skiing

Travel from central Sapporo to broad snowfields and Hokkaido powder for skiing or snow play. Ski equipment and clothing are not included and may be rented or prepared separately according to individual needs.

THE HOKKAIDO POWDER EDIT

Noboribetsu Hell Valley & Mount Usu Ropeway

Volcanic steam at Hell Valley, the Mount Usu Ropeway and views of Showa-Shinzan bring Hokkaido's active landscape together in one journey.

THE HOKKAIDO POWDER EDIT

Otaru Canal, Sakaimachi & Music Boxes

Stone warehouses, a wintry canal and nostalgic Sakaimachi streets lead to Otaru's Music Box Museum and Kitaichi Glass heritage.

THE HOKKAIDO POWDER EDIT

Hokkaido Winter Flavours & Lake Toya Onsen

A Lake Toya onsen stay adds warmth to the winter journey, while hairy-crab hotpot and a three-crab buffet showcase northern flavours.
