DISCOVER ASAHIDAKE - HOKKAIDO'S BACKCOUNTRY CROWN JEWEL

Rising from the heart of the Daisetsuzan National Park, Asahidake is Hokkaido’s highest peak and one of Japan’s most iconic backcountry destinations. With its steaming volcanic vents, dramatic alpine landscapes, and an average snowfall that ranks among the deepest in the world, Asahidake offers a truly unforgettable setting for powder seekers. Here, winter transforms the mountain into a paradise of endless fresh lines and pristine snowfields — the very definition of “Japow.”

Why Lift-Assisted Backcountry?

The Asahidake ropeway gives us quick and efficient access to the alpine zone, eliminating long approaches and maximizing our time in the terrain that matters most. Within minutes, we step into vast bowls, perfectly spaced birch and aspen glades, and steep powder runs that drop into natural halfpipes. Lift-assisted touring means more riding, less climbing — a balance that allows guests to enjoy the thrill of untouched powder while conserving energy for multiple laps. Depending on conditions we get between 6-10 runs in a day.

The Yabai Tours Experience

Our guides know Asahidake inside and out — from the safest routes around volcanic features to the hidden stashes. Every tour is tailored to the group’s ability and energy levels, whether you’re chasing big alpine lines or flowing through trees stacked with snow. Along the way, guests also gain insights into avalanche awareness and local mountain culture, making the experience as educational as it is exhilarating.

Benefits of Joining Our Tour

• Maximize Your Time – Spend the day skiing and riding powder instead of long hikes.

• Safety First – Travel with experienced guides trained in avalanche rescue and mountain safety.

• Local Knowledge – Access hidden lines and snow conditions only locals know.

• Unforgettable Atmosphere – Ride amid volcanic terrain, and Hokkaido’s legendary deep snow.

**Our lift-assisted Asahidake back country tours do not require poles, snowshoes or skins. We have a number of backcountry routes that are accessible with a 10-20 minute bootpack climb (depending on your fitness level) PLUS many amazing side country routes accessible with no hiking.

*Please note: Due to varying and quickly changing weather conditions, Asahidake Ropeway will not operate everyday of the winter. Operating days are generally decided by the resort staff on the day. Furthermore, at the discretion of Asahidake ropeway management, the ropeway may not be running first thing in the morning but then (if weather conditions improve), it may start operation after a few hours (or for the afternoon). Conversely, the ropeway may be open in the morning but close later in the day due to deteriorating wind and weather conditions. As a general rule, Asahidake ropeway won't open unless the windspeed is less then 14 metres per second.

Our guides will monitor the situation closely in the days before your tour and notify you of possibilities. If you have booked your tour for Asahidake, and it's not possible to ride there (for the reasons mentioned above) our guides will choose another suitable location for your tour on the day OR if possible your tour will be moved to another day.
