Why depend on lifts when the best untouched powder to be had is just a hike away? Skin up and get ready for the Hokkaido Unplugged! This trip is not for lazy resort goers; your 10
This trip is not for lazy resort goers; your 10 day guided Hokkaido trip starts in the Niseko area with legendary lines on Mt. Yotei, Shiribetsu Dake, and a variety of our other favorite touring spots. We then make a brief stopover in Sapporo to ski some lesser known backcountry terrain. During this stop your guide will help you explore Sapporo; taking advantage of the culture, cuisine, and sights in the world’s snowiest major city.
The 10 day guided Hokkaido trip then points North East to explore the quieter but exciting powder destinations found in central Hokkaido. As with all of our trips, we have lots options at each area we visit and will adjust to weather conditions to make sure we stay deep in the good stuff for the entirety of your 10 days.
Guests of Hokkaido Unplugged Trips can also take advantage of a 10% discount on Hokkaido Backcountry Club tours.
