Starting from the west exit of Aomori, we first took a train up Mount Hakkoda. In early April, the mountain was covered in snow, with strong gusts of wind and drifting mist that added to the atmosphere for photos. The wind was very strong, so those going should dress warmly and bring gloves, as your hands will be stiff from the wind! 😂 Along the way, we headed towards the Oirase Stream. Hitoshi-san introduced the various scenic spots to the group, giving everyone ample time for photos and stopping at many attractions. The most memorable was the Snow Wall Corridor, which resembled a smaller version of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route. We stopped at Lake Towada for lunch, where the famous Aomori chicken is worth trying. Special thanks to Hitoshi-san for his thoughtful care and arrangements for the group. You can also visit other day tours later.
