Snowshoeing and Onsen Adventures in a Winter Wonderland -Sapporo.

My snowshoeing trip will remain a highlight of my trip to Sapporo. The trek was so much fun and the views were absolutely breathtaking. We were in great hands with Chris who was communicative, informative, and a joy to spend the day with. The onsen after a few hours in the snow was the cherry on top. This was such an amazing way to spend time in Sapporo. Thanks for everything, Chris!!

The Absolute Best Day Snowshoeing in Hokkaido – Unforgettable with the Perfect Guide! If you’re looking for the highlight of your Hokkaido winter trip, this snowshoeing adventure was hands-down the best day of our entire vacation. Chris our tour guide made us feel so safe and cares for.

We had a fantastic day, Chris was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and patient. The walk was amazing, through deep snow and up through the forest, we saw a couple of people at the start then not a soul after. Chris provided all the snow shoe equipment and advised in advance what to wear and bring etc. It was topped off by the visit to the onsen. Again, Chris was great, explaining how it all works, etiquette etc. The onsen itself was fantastic, with different areas, some outside so you're able to sit in the hot water watching the hills and snow. We we're the only westerners there.

An absolutely unforgettable experience from start to finish. I cant praise Chris highly enough. To begin with, communication prior to our excursion was fantastic, but the actual walk itself was mind blowing. The scenery was incredible, we felt like we were the only people around for miles, but felt totally comfortable with Chris' expert knowledge & facts about the area. Undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. Highly recommended.

Chris was an exceptional guide who truly tailored the hike to our experience level. He was incredibly patient and shared practical tips and tricks for navigating the terrain effectively, which made us feel confident throughout the trek. Beyond his technical skills, Chris was friendly, sincere, and a great conversationalist. He pointed out various tree species and animal tracks we would have otherwise missed and led us to some breathtaking viewpoints. To top it all off, the outdoor onsen he selected was the perfect way to relax after the hike. Highly recommended!

Great fun, Chris was a friendly, kind and knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended, great views and good 6km hike in the snow. Pick up instructions were easy and drop off at station was very convenient.

We had a wonderful private tour on New Year’s Day! Chris is super knowledgeable about Hokkaido flora and fauna and helped us navigate the very snowy trail. We had a gorgeous day and lots of fun in the powder. Thanks Chris!

We had a great time doing snowshoeing with Trekmate Hokkaido. Chris is a super knowledgeable guide who takes a genuine interest in the people that he is guiding. He made the whole process very easy as far as communication and flexibility on the timing of things. The onsen trip at the end made it the perfect way to spend a day in Hokkaido. Highly highly highly recommend to anyone looking to spend time exploring the natural beauty in this part of Japan.

We didnt expect the snowshoeing was so tough (maybe for me) and although we didnt make it to the top, we had loads of fun. Chris is a great guide, very friendly and easygoing and helped us took alot of pictures. The view and the surrounding were breathtaking, so peaceful and calm. Hopefully can come back again when we build up our stamina. We ended the trip with a good onsen bath, so recharged after the workout and certainly a great way to end the day. Will recommend this tour , away from the touristy places and something to remember about Hokkiado!

Chris made sure we had an amazing experience. His communication before the hike was amazing, and it was very easy to get to the meeting location. The hike itself was more than we could have ever wanted, it was the perfect amount of challenge, whilst being super safe, with the most amazing scenery. Finishing the day at the onsen was the perfect way to relax after the hike!
