A ski touring safari
looking for the best snow in the world
Available dates in January 2026:
- From 11 to 20 January 2026
- From 20 to 28 January 2026
The island of Hokkaido enjoys exceptional snowfall every year and extraordinarily light snow, described by some as “the best powder in the world”. It is also a volcanic island, which means you can ski on an active volcano, amidst volcanic vents.
In order to take full advantage of the skiing opportunities, we will alternate resort skiing with ski mountaineering.
Many of these excursions are made easier by the ski lifts, which provide quick access to the best off-piste areas.
You will need to use wide skis (minimum 90 mm skis, ideally 105 mm) equipped with touring bindings.
by a team of passionate individuals.
That's why we place such importance on the human dimension
and attention to detail in all our projects.
Our trips are characterized by offering tailor-made itineraries,
quality cuisine and accommodation in an unconventional environment.
