スノーシューツアー 世界遺産知床半島の原生林をスノーシューで散策&野生動物ウォッチングツアー<12月~3月/3.5時間/知床ウトロ温泉>by ピッキオ

Enjoying the great outdoors in extreme cold! 極寒の中で大自然を満喫!

Reviewed by: ラスタ

I walked through the empty, natural forest on snowshoes. Occasionally, I spotted birds or saw animal tracks in the snow and learned what kind of tracks they were. In this great outdoors, I encountered red foxes and deer while also learning about animal ecology. At Furepe Falls, a strong wind blew, drastically lowering the perceived temperature and allowing me to experience the harshness of winter in Shiretoko. After that, since I had no physical issues, I was guided to a place called "Men's Tears." The view of the Sea of Okhotsk and the steep coastline of the Shiretoko Peninsula from here was breathtaking. The staff provided detailed guidance, presenting materials at various points despite the cold, which made it easy to understand. In hindsight, I thought I could have dressed a bit warmer. Thank you very much.

誰もいない大自然の森の中をスノーシュでテクテク歩く。
時々鳥を見つけたり雪の中の動物の足跡を見て何の足跡か教わる。
そんな大自然の中でキタキツネや鹿と出会いながら動物の生態についても教わる。
フレペの滝では強烈な風が吹いていて一気に体感温度を下げ冬の知床の厳しさを体感した。
その後体力的に問題なかったので男の涙という所まで案内していただいた。
ここから見るオホーツク海と切立った知床半島の海岸線が絶景だった。
スタッフの方々は寒い中でも所々で資料を出しながら丁寧に案内してくれ分かりやすかった。
反省としてはもう少し着込んでもよかったかなぁ、と思いました。
ありがとうございました。

I want to go to Shiretoko again. 知床また行きたい

Reviewed by: ポンチャン

It's warm to put ski pants inside your boots. Those who left the cuffs of their pants outside said their feet were cold and painful. I was so comfortable and had so much fun that I wanted to walk more. There were many deer. We were blessed with good weather, and we could see Rausu-dake clearly, which was moving.

長靴の中にスキーズボンいれると暖かいです。
ズボンの裾を外に出していた人は足が寒くて痛かったそうです。
私はもっと歩きたかったくらい快適で楽しかったです。鹿がたくさんいました。

It was a wonderful experience! 素晴らしい体験でした!

Reviewed by: SAEKO

The wonderful guide provided detailed explanations, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. We were able to rent ski wear and gloves, and they even provided hand warmers, making it easy to participate. The guide adjusted the pace according to the participants' fitness levels, offered detailed explanations at various points, and took amazing photos, creating the best memories. We were able to savor the richness of the winter primeval forest in Shiretoko, and we were also fortunate to catch the sunset at Cape Puyuni on the way back, which was very satisfying! Thank you very much.

素晴らしいガイドさんが丁寧に説明くださり満喫することができました。
スキーウェアや手袋などレンタルでき、ホッカイロまで提供してくれたので本当に身軽に参加できました。
参加者の体力に合わせて、進んでくださり、ポイントで詳しい説明や、素晴らしい写真もとってくれて最高の思い出になりました。
知床の冬の原生林の豊かさを味わうことができ、帰りにタイミングよくプユニ岬で夕日を見ることもでき大満足でした!

Encounter with a flying squirrel. モモンガに遭遇

Reviewed by: しゅんざわ

I participated in the 2-hour course. My initial goal was to see the Furepe Falls, but I also wanted to look for flying squirrels. I was told that they can often be found where pine nuts are dropped, so I searched for those. And there they were! A flying squirrel eating pine nuts in the trees. It was eating for quite a long time, so I was able to take some great photos. The Furepe Falls were also magnificent and impressive. Additionally, I was lent snowshoes, which made walking on the snowy paths easy. It was a fulfilling 2 hours, and I would love to go again.

2時間コースに参加させていただきました。
当初の目的はフレペの滝でしたが、モモンガが見れるかもとのことで探して歩きました。
食べかけの松の実が落ちてるところを探すとその上にいることが多いということで、探して歩いていたら、いました!木の上で松の実を食べてるモモンガ。かなり長い時間食べていたので、じっくり写真を撮ることができました。
フレペの滝も壮大でよかったです。
あと、スノーシューを貸していただいて雪道も楽チンでした。
充実した2時間でした。また行ってみたいと思います。

Reviewed by: m.o

We were blessed with great weather and enjoyed the pure white snow! Although we are not very active, we were amazed and thrilled by the snow, walking a lot to take photos and videos, observing the birds, and packing our time with fun activities. We were satisfied during our coffee break and on the way back, we enjoyed the pleasant afterglow while pondering what to eat. It was great that we could rent winter gear as well. I definitely want to go again!

天気に恵まれて、真っ白な雪を満喫しました!運動不足な私達ですが、雪にびっくり感激して、たくさん歩いて写真やビデオを撮ったり、鳥たちを観察したり、楽しいことやりたいことを詰め込んで過ごせました。コーヒータイムに満足して、帰りは楽しい余韻に浸りながら何を食べようか迷いながら帰りました。防寒レンタルも出来て良かったです。またぜひ行きたいです。

It was a memorable experience. 思い出に残る体験でした

Reviewed by: グーレー

The weather was just right, with a little snow falling on the day. The drift ice was also just arriving, allowing us to see a more dynamic landscape than we had expected. On this day, we were able to spot deer from a distance, but we couldn't see them up close. I was very healed by the quiet air in the forest. Additionally, the guide's explanations were very detailed and easy to understand, which was educational. The descriptions that wove in the history of Shiretoko with information about the flora and fauna were very impressive. It made me feel a desire to learn more about the greatness of nature and history, and it reminded me that this is a heritage we must cherish and protect. Witnessing the plants and animals living in such a harsh environment inspired me to strive harder. I also greatly appreciated the help with the date change the day before. Thank you for the valuable experience.

当日は雪が少し降ったりなどちょうど良い天気でした。
流氷もちょうど漂着しており思っていたよりダイナミックな景色を見ることが出来ました。
この日は鹿を遠目で確認できた感じで近くでは見ることができませんでした。
森の中の静かな空気にとても癒されました。
また、ガイドさんの説明がとても詳しく分かりやすく勉強になりました。
動植物の事に知床の歴史を織り入れた説明がとても印象的でした。
自然や歴史の偉大さにもっと学びたい気持ちと、大切に守っていかなきゃいけない遺産なんだなと考えさせられました。
過酷な環境で順応しながら生きる動植物を目の当たりにして、もっと頑張らなきゃだなと活力ももらえました。

A time to fully experience the charm of Shiretoko in winter. 冬の知床の魅力を体いっぱい感じれる時間

Reviewed by: Aiponchi

I was guided by Ayano-san. Instead of a trekking course, we walked through a snowy animal path wearing snowshoes. I was able to hear many stories about the ecosystem that I wouldn't have learned by walking through the forest on my own. Since these are wild animals, there's no guarantee you'll see them, but during my visit, I was able to observe various animals such as Ezo deer, northern foxes, white-tailed eagles, and falcons.

In February, during the peak of winter, we happened to be there just as the drift ice was returning to the shore with the north wind, and we were able to enjoy the view of the drift ice spreading across the sea. I was captivated by its grandeur and forgot the cold as I admired it.

If you want to know the land, walking with a guide is the best! I was also comforted by Ayano-san's wonderful personality.

Since the temperature is below freezing, your toes can get cold. I think it's a good idea for participants to keep their toes especially warm.

ガイドの綾野さんにご案内していただきました。
トレッキングコースではなく雪の獣道をスノーシューを履いて歩いて散策。自分で森を歩いたら知り得ないような森から読み取れる生態系のお話しをたくさん聞かせていただけました。野生のものなので100%出会えるものはありませんが、私の時はエゾシカやキタキツネ、オオワシにハヤブサなどさまざまな動物を観察することができました。

2月の真冬日で、ちょうど北風にのって流氷が岸に戻ってくるタイミングにあたり、流氷が海に広がる景色も拝むことができました。あまりの壮大さに心奪われ寒さも忘れ見惚れてしまいました。

やはりその土地を知るなら、ガイドさんと歩くのが1番!綾野さんの素敵なお人柄にも癒されました。

気温はマイナスの世界なので、足先が冷えます。参加される方は足先を特に温かくしていくといいと思います。

Since it was a rare opportunity, I wondered if it would be okay and requested the three-hour course. It seems to be a different path from the usual one, where we crossed over large trees and ducked between them, which was a lot of fun! I encountered a herd of Ezo deer and various birds, and it was really enjoyable.

折角なので、大丈夫かな?と思いながら3時間コースをお願いしました。一般とは違う獣道だそうで、大木をまたいだり、木の間をくぐったり、楽しかったです!

We experienced a three-hour course starting from the Nature Center with our family of three. Considering our physical fitness and the weather that day, we were guided to a recommended distance and course. Thanks to the careful planning of the route, the attentive guidance, and the consideration for our pace, it turned out to be a very fulfilling experience. On a clear day, we encountered a golden eagle, a white-tailed eagle, squirrels, and a herd of deer, creating unforgettable memories. I highly recommend it to everyone.

自然センター出発の3時間コースを家族3人で体験させて頂きました。私たちの体力、その日の天候等を考え、おすすめの距離、コースを案内いただきました。コースどりはもちろん、丁寧な案内、ペースの気配り等を頂いたお陰でとても充実した体験となりました。快晴のなか、オオワシ、オジロワシ、リス、鹿の群れにも出会え、忘れられない思い出となりました。皆さまにも是非お勧め致します。

【1日1組限定】スノーシューピクニック ふかふかの雪の森へ大冒険!(3歳から参加OK)<12~3月/富良野エリアから送迎付き/富良野市>

Wrapped in tranquility. 静けさに包まれて

Reviewed by: K•S

Since each tour accommodates only one group, you won't have to worry about interacting with unfamiliar people, allowing you to have plenty of conversations with the instructor. During the tour, you can feel the presence of animals living in the forest through snow tracks, scratch marks on trees, droppings, and remnants of their meals, with the instructor explaining each detail. You can lie on the snow, taste tree sap, and truly connect with nature. In the forest, apart from the sound of flowing water and birds chirping, the only noise is the crunch of snow beneath your feet, creating a wonderfully soothing silence. Especially for those who usually live in urban areas, this is an indescribably wonderful natural experience. They also provide transportation from Furano Station and hotels, making it accessible even without a car. You'll definitely find yourself wanting to live in Hokkaido. Highly recommended!

1ツアーにつき1団体なので、はじめましての方々と気を遣いながら同行するということもなく、インストラクターさんとたくさん話すことができます。ツアーでは、雪上の足跡、樹木に残る引っ掻き傷、フンや食べ跡など、森に生きる動物たちの息吹を感じることができ、インストラクターさんがひとつひとつ解説してくれます。雪の上に寝てみたり、樹液を舐めてみたり、自然を肌で感じることができます。森の中には、水が流れる音や鳥の鳴く声以外は、自分たちが雪を歩くザクザクとした音が響くだけで、なんとも心地よい静寂を体感できます。特に普段は都会暮らしをしている人にとっては、なんとも言えない素敵な自然体験ができます。富良野駅やホテルなどからの送迎もしてもらえるので、車がなくても参加できるのも有難いです。きっと北海道に住みたくなること間違いなし。とてもオススメです。

My husband, who participated with me, was thrilled to observe a Eurasian red squirrel, so I want to see one too next time. It was a tour that made me want to participate again.

Half Day Snowshoe Walk and Ezo Owl Watching Tour from Sapporo

Awsome hike with an even more awesome tour guide!

Reviewed by: Terry

There was a small miscommunication in the beginning where Veltra told us the wrong pickup location. After 40 minutes, we finally find out the right pick up location from our tour guide Masa and he was still waiting for us.

We headed out for a ~4km hike around Nopporo Forst Park. It took us about 2 hours and in between we stopped to have some hot coffee. Masa was extremely helpful explaining our surroundings. He was also giving us suggestions of where to eat and what to do in Sapporo. Overall the hike was a great getaway from the busy city and what made it even better is our tour guide Masa from Sapporo Active Navigation.

スノーシューツアー エゾフクロウの棲む森で動物を探しに出発!野幌森林公園5時間コース 防寒4点レンタル付きプランあり<12~3月/札幌中心部送迎付>

I fully enjoyed winter in Hokkaido. 冬の北海道を満喫しました

Reviewed by: YUSUKE

It's a place surrounded by nature, about a 30-minute drive from Sapporo city. The guide's explanations were clear, and they shared enjoyable stories. It was my first time snowshoeing, but it wasn't difficult, and anyone can enjoy it. Unfortunately, the Ezo owl didn't show itself, but I would love to go again.

札幌市内から車で30分位で自然に囲まれた場所です。
ガイドさんの案内もわかりやすく、楽しい話を聞かせてくれます。
はじめてのスノーシューでしたが、難しくもなく誰でも楽しめます。
エゾフクロウは残念ながら姿を現してくれませんでしたが、また行ってみたいものです・

大雪原の丘スノーシュー&温泉ツアー このツアーだけ入れる北海道長沼町大雪原の丘へ!ながぬま温泉入浴とランチ付き♪<12~3月/札幌中心部・新千歳空港送迎付>

Second-time snowshoeing as a repeat visitor. リピーター(2回目)のスノーシュー

Reviewed by: まつもと

Two years ago, I participated in a different snowshoe tour with the same excellent company, and it was so enjoyable that I decided to repeat it.

The tour I participated in two years ago:
Ezo Owl Forest Snowshoe Tour - Enjoy Animal Observation!
<Includes pickup from Sapporo City / January to March / Sapporo City>
https://www.veltra.com/jp/japan/hokkaido/sapporo/a/126900

This time, we hiked up a small hill with snowshoes, had lunch, enjoyed a hot spring, ate soft serve ice cream, and were taken directly to New Chitose Airport.

The outside temperature was around -6°C, but I didn't feel cold at all; in fact, it was so comfortable that I was even sweating a bit.

We climbed the hill for about an hour while watching the sheep and horses at the entrance of the ranch. When we reached the top, we dug into the snow to create a table and chairs, and took a break with hot tea brewed by our guide. Along the way, the guide took photos at Instagram-worthy spots, and after the tour, I received those photos instantly via AirDrop on my iPhone (of course, for free).

The lunch was also very delicious, and the Nagunuma Onsen was quite a large bathhouse with a pleasant outdoor bath.

I'm glad I participated. If I have the opportunity to go to Sapporo again, I would like to join tours organized by this company, not just snowshoeing. I heard they also have bicycle tours in the summer, so I would love to try that if I get the chance.

2年前に同じ最高会社の別スノーシューツアーに参加し、とても面白かったのでリピートしました。

2年前参加したツアー

エゾフクロウの棲む森スノーシューツアー 動物観察を楽しもう!
<札幌市内送迎付き/1月~3月/札幌市>
https://www.veltra.com/jp/japan/hokkaido/sapporo/a/126900

今回は小高い丘をスノーシューでハイクし、ランチを食べ、温泉に入り、ソフトクリームを食べ、そのまま新千歳空港に送ってもらうという内容でした。

外気温-6℃ほどでしたが、寒さは全く感じず、むしろ汗ばむくらいで快適でした。

牧場の入り口にいる羊や馬を見ながら小一時間ほど丘を登っていき、頂上に着いたら、雪を掘ってテーブルとイスを自作し、ガイドさんの淹れてくれる熱い紅茶で休憩しました。道中、SNS映えする撮影スポットでガイドさんが写真を撮ってくれ、ツアー後、その写真をiPhoneのAirDropですぐに貰えます(もちろん無料)。

ランチもとても美味しく、ながぬま温泉も結構大きな湯屋で露天風呂が気持ち良かったです。

参加して良かったです。
また札幌に行く機会があれば、スノーシューに限らず
この催行会社主催のツアーに参加したいと思いました。
夏は自転車ツアーをしているそうなので機会があれば参加してみたいなぁと。

Thank you for the wonderful memories. 素敵な思い出をありがとう

Reviewed by: ヤマゲラ子

I walked on snowshoes for the first time. It was a lot of fun exploring the forest while crunching through the snow, and I had encounters with my favorite birds. Although I didn't see the Eurasian Eagle-Owl or the Black Woodpecker, I was able to see the Japanese Green Woodpecker for the first time. I was comforted by warm chai in the cold snow, and I created wonderful memories, including attempting to make snow angels. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

初めてスノーシューで雪の上を歩きました。雪を踏みしめながらの森の散策では大好きな鳥達との出会いもありとても楽しかったです。エゾフクロウやクマゲラには会えなかったけれど、初めてヤマゲラを見ることができました。寒い雪の中で暖かいチャイに癒され、スノーエンジェルへの挑戦など素敵な思い出ができました。機会があればまた参加したいと思います。

Half Day Snowshoe Walk and Ezo Owl Watching Tour from Sapporo

Very refreshing walk in the country side

Reviewed by: James L

The 3.6km walk was very refreshing in crispy clean air inside a forest park. Hiro San made it more enjoyable by providing interesting information and small exercises along the way. He took good care of us, especially we had little experience in cold weather and zero experience with snow shoes. It was a pity we didn’t see the owl this day, but this is wildlife and one cannot expect 100% outcome. The walk itself was well worth it.

I was able to meet a Eurasian owl! エゾフクロウに会えました!

Reviewed by: YOKO

It was my first experience with snowshoeing! At first, I thought it might be difficult to walk, but I quickly got used to it, and walking on the fluffy snow was so much fun. Thank you for sharing so many interesting stories about animals and nature. The couple who guided us were also very kind! (I’m not sure if I can mention their names, so I’ll keep it private, haha.) I definitely want to go again! Thank you for the valuable experience.

スノーシュー初体験でした!
最初は歩きづらいのかな?と思いましたがすぐに慣れて、ふわふわの雪を歩くのが楽しかったです。
おもしろい動物の話や自然について、たくさん聞かせていただきありがとうございました。
ガイドしていただいたご夫婦にとっても良くしていただきました!

Half Day Snowshoe Walk and Ezo Owl Watching Tour from Sapporo

Fun half-day trip!

Reviewed by: Sivadorai S

Hiro- san was a wonderful guide, from the moment he picked us up from our hotel. He brought us on a scenic snowshoe walk around Nopporo Forest Park, where we spotted an Ezo owl and several animal tracks and a squirrel too. Keeping it fun with some stops for photos, and hot coffee on a table made of snow, we definitely had no regrets taking up this trip!

I want to go again. また行きたいです

Reviewed by: MOCO

This time, I was taken to Nopporo. The early morning scenery was very beautiful, and I was able to see many Ezo squirrels and Japanese woodpeckers, which was refreshing. It was my first time snowshoeing, but I enjoyed the 3.8 km distance. It was very cold, and the freshly brewed chai was delicious. I was grateful to be able to borrow winter clothing (top and bottom, hat, gloves), but it would have been nice to have foot warmers. There were other groups as well, and we spent about 5 hours there. I was dropped off at Sapporo Station on the way back. I would like to participate again.

今回は野幌に連れて行って頂きました。
早朝の景色はとてもきれいで、エゾリスやアカゲラなども多く見ることができリフレッシュできました。
スノーシューは初めてでしたが、3.8kmの距離も楽しめました。とても寒く、淹れたてのチャイがとても美味しかったです。
防寒着(上下、帽子、手袋)を借りることができたので助かりましたが、靴用カイロがあればよかったかも。
他のグループもいて約5時間、帰りは札幌駅で降ろして頂きました。
また参加したいです。

Thank you for your comment.
We tend to have a high discovery rate of wild birds and small animals, which is why we chose Noboribetsu.
It was quite cold at your feet. I apologize for not being more considerate. I have since purchased additional cold-weather boots and inner layers.
If there is another opportunity, I look forward to hearing from you.

書き込みありがとうございます。
野鳥や小動物の発見率が高い傾向があり、野幌にしました。
足元、冷たかったですね。配慮が足りずに申し訳ありませんでした。現在、防寒靴の買い増しとインナーを揃えました。
また機会がございましたら、ぜひご連絡をお待ちしています。

Asahiyama Memorial Park Forest Morning Snowshoe Tour from Sapporo

It’s a good value for the money tour! Highly recommend!

Reviewed by: liu

We are so lucky to have Masa San as our half day tour leader. He is super friendly, helpful and speaks good English. Masa San came to our hotel to pick us and prepared warm clothing (we reserved in advance) boots for us. Its about 15-20 minutes drive from Susukino to the forest.

We suggest those who wanna join the tour to take as less as you can for the backpack. All you need is your camera and water cuz it’s easy to get thirsty during walking on the snow, it’s hard to get bored, you can play with snow and animals (small birds) around.

Masa is not only good in English but also professional in photographing. He helped us to take so many beautiful and gorgeous photos and he cared if we felt too tired during the tour.

It’s not that difficult for snow hiking but everyone should know how far he/she can get. If you feel tired during the tour, please do not hesitate to tell your leader, I think they will be very willing to assist and adjust.

This is my very first time to join a tour with Veltra, they are a awesome team! They replied my questions quickly and friendly. I feel grateful and lucky to join this tour. It’s definitely a highly recommended tour.

  • Nice weather

  • Super nice leader - Masa San
