Overview

The artificial lake "Kinshuko", which was created about 60 years ago, has a water level that fluctuates depending on the season. You can enjoy the change of scenery in that season. January-March is the dry season, and you can walk just past Kinshu Lake. By wearing the traditional Japanese craft "Kanjiki" You can walk on snow that is close to your height. It can only be seen in this season while observing the winter buds of trees and the footprints of animals along the way. I'm going to see a precious sight.

What's included

  • Coffee and/or Tea
  • Snow boots [500yen]

Itinerary

Using a traditional Japanese snowshoe tool called "Kanjiki", if there is snow in places where you couldn't go by yab in the summer, you can walk anywhere. Under the iron bridge where trains pass, and on the railroad tracks that used to pass. Snow trekking while walking on the snow on the shores of Lake Kinshu and watching the winter buds of trees and the footprints of animals along the way. It feels extraordinary to walk on a course that is not a tourist destination.
