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.

Dancing Snow's regular backcountry guided tours are one-day courses covering the mountains around Myoko (Maeyama, Akakurayama, Mt. Sandawarayama, Mt. Kannayama, Mt. Kurohime, etc.). We aim for peaks accessible from Myoko's ski resorts. We use the lifts and gondolas as far as we can, then hike up to the summit. Depending on the group and destination, the climb takes approximately 2-3 hours. Experienced skiers who want to enjoy steep slopes and deep snow are welcome to join us.
About the guide
There will be one guide for every five people, and an additional guide will be assigned for groups of five or more. Small groups tend to be more common. Maximum group size is 10 people.
Tour Schedule
Please arrive at our office by 8:30 AM on the day of your trip. We will hold a pre-departure meeting to discuss the trails, snow, and weather conditions, as well as safety. We will then check everyone's gear, answer any questions, provide lunch, and prepare you for departure. You will be taken to the departure point in our vehicle, where you will usually board the lift.
There's also a hot spring next to the office.
The price does not include the cost of the hot springs, but you can enjoy Niigata's hot springs after returning from the tour.

Purchase Notice

Regarding cancellation of the event:

Depending on the weather and snow conditions, the tour destination may be changed or the tour may be canceled.

Other important points:

1. Backcountry skiing and snowboarding involves the risk of injury or death. Therefore, we require all guests to sign a liability waiver before participating in backcountry activities (a PDF version is available in the attached file). At the same time, our guides are trained in first aid, avalanche prediction, and rescue, and are dedicated to providing the most enjoyable and well-planned experience possible. 2. All Dancing Snow guests are automatically covered by our group insurance at no additional cost (please contact us for details on coverage). We also strongly recommend that all participants in backcountry tours have their own valid insurance that covers outdoor activities. 3. We appreciate you letting us know if you have any chronic health conditions. We know that many people are able to participate in outdoor activities, albeit with some limitations, and we respect your ability to determine whether a tour is within your capabilities. Your information will be kept strictly confidential, but it will be extremely helpful in responding if something happens during the day. Personal Information Notice: To ensure your safety, we ask for personal information, such as your phone number and emergency contact details, as part of your lesson or tour registration. We will not use your personal information for any other purpose, and we will not provide it to third parties.
