CENTRAL HOKKAIDO EXPLORER
DURATION: 7 days / 6 nights
TOUR FOCUS: Powder touring (not lift-assisted)
ABILITY: Advanced - This is not a beginners/ intermediate tour. To join this tour, you must have experience riding deep powder snow, and be able to safely maneuver in trees. Off-piste snow sports insurance is mandatory to participate.
GROUP SIZE: 6 x people
Bring your touring setup, skins or snowshoes, because we're going hiking!
In this tour we focus on exploring Central Hokkaido's most magical backcountry destinations. The Daisetsuzan range has many locations that will blow your mind. We also focus on lower elevation hikes in quiet areas, where you can get multiple laps, even though you are touring. If the group is interested in some lift-assisted day action, we will also take you to: Asahidake ropeway, Kurodake, or even Furano & Kamui. However the primary focus for this tour is day touring, in more isolated areas, which involves hiking from the carpark area. ADVENTURE & DEEP POW AWAIT!
A beacon, shovel & probe are required each day, so if you don't have this gear, we will be provide it for you, included in the tour price. Our experienced, locally based guides, will choose the best location of the day, based on the conditions & wind. (Please read our google reviews!) We know where the best snow will be!

"Want a lift-assited, all-inclusive powder trip? We host full 7-day/6-night guiding and accommodation packages based out of Asahikawa. Check out the Asahikawa Freeride Explorer Package to lock in your 2027 winter slot."
Accommodation: Central Asahikawa Powder base
Our 2027 Asahikawa guiding packages are based out of the Amanek Hotel Asahikawa, widely considered the ultimate hub for chasing Central Hokkaido powder. Staying in the heart of Asahikawa gives us perfect daily flexibility to storm-chase the best snow across Kamui, Asahidake, and Furano, while placing you steps away from the legendary ramen shops and izakayas of the Asahikawa downtown district. A convenient 7-eleven is 30 metres away, directly across the road, for ATM, cold beer & snacks.
Top-Floor Natural Onsen & Sauna: The rooftop natural hot spring and cold-plunge sauna are included daily—essential after a hard day riding deep Hokkaido pow.
On-site coin laundry
Daily Hot Buffet Breakfast
Basing out of downtown Asahikawa means we aren't locked into one mountain's weather pattern. If Asahidake is blasted by high winds and visibility drops to zero, we simply pivot our private vans 45 minutes to the sheltered tree lines of Kamui Ski Links or head down to Furano. You get the best snow in the region every single morning, with zero wasted storm days.
