Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

  • Nordic walking involves walking with special poles in both hands. Using poles provides a full-body workout, reduces stress on the knees, and is said to be effective for rehabilitation and weight loss. The walking course is within Noshiro City, but the route changes each day. It includes the city's erosion control forest, "Kaze no Matsubara" (a pine forest stretching 14km north to south), Noshiro Park, and downtown Noshiro. Enjoy the city of Noshiro while walking. The Nordic walking poles are included in the experience fee, so you don't need to bring your own. *Please wear comfortable walking clothes. Since you'll be carrying the poles, a backpack or shoulder bag is recommended, leaving both hands free. Gloves or work gloves are also recommended (the poles are secured to your hands with bands to prevent chafing). *Members of the Noshiro-based "Shirakami Nordic Walking Club" will also join the walk. ◆Meeting place: Noshiro City Tourist Information Center (inside JR Noshiro Station) ◆Meeting time: 9:10 9:20~ Warm-up 9:30 Depart for Nordic walking in Noshiro City 11:00 Return ~ Cool down (stretching after exercise) and disband
  • An instructor will guide and accompany you
  • Instructors will teach you everything from how to hold the poles to how to walk, so even first-timers are welcome to join. *There is a minimum age for participants, but participants must be at least 130cm tall (due to the length of the dedicated poles).
  • The course will change depending on the date of participation.
  • The courses change depending on the season and theme, such as courses that allow you to experience nature or courses that take you through the city.
  • Souvenir included
