Minakami is an outdoor adventure paradise throughout the whole year. Winter brings tons of powdery snow blanketing the open landscape. This is a beginner level trip but there is a bit of climbing involved, though we will cover approximately 5km with about 250 meters of elevation gained and lost.
Our snowshoeing route will start on the edge of a ski resort walking along a wide path through the forest next to a river. We will have lunch on the trail just before making our climb up to the ice cave with hopes of catching a glimpse of some of the local winter wildlife including possible ptarmigans, deer, and such. After lunch we will work our up to the Ooyuu Cave which is filled with ice stalactites and stalagmites creating an amazing scene of crystals.
The descent will be an exciting slide through the forest on mini sleds. After snowshoeing back to starting point we'll head to a hot spring to warm up in a great outdoor bath with views of the snow covered mountains.
