スノーシュー半日ツアー 旭山記念公園コース エゾリスや雪の妖精シマエナガに出会う!雪の散策路や林の中を歩こう<12~3月/札幌中心部送迎付>

Asahiyama Snow Walk! 旭山雪さんぽ!

Reviewed by: しんや

It was amazing!
I participated with a friend who came from Fukuoka to enjoy some winter activities!
Even though it's close to the city center, we were able to fully enjoy the snowy mountains and nature of Hokkaido (we even saw a flock of Siberian chipmunks!). The guide was kind, attentive, and above all, a lot of fun! I would love to go to a different place with the same guide next time!
Also, it was really helpful that we could go without having to carry anything!

最高でした〜!
福岡からきた友人と、冬らしいアクティビティをやろうと参加しました!
都心から近いのに北海道の雪山や自然を満喫でき(シマエナガの群も見れました!)ガイドさんも親切丁寧、そして何よりとっても楽しい方でした!同じガイドさんで今度は違うところに行ってみたいです!
あと、手ぶらで行けるのもすごく助かりましたー!

We were picked up at the hotel and drove to the park.
In the parking lot, we changed into the rented winter clothing, shoes, gloves, and hats, and put on our snowshoes.
We listened carefully in the snow, fell down, and slipped around.
The guide was incredibly entertaining, making it the best memory of the trip!
I think they guide each group or family separately, so you can experience it at your own pace.

ホテルに迎えに来ていただき、車で公園へ
公園の駐車場でレンタルした防寒着、靴、手袋、帽子に着替えスノーシューを装着。
雪の中で耳を澄ませたり、転んだり、滑ったり。
ガイドの方がとにかく楽しませてくださるので、旅一番の思い出になりました!
グループごと、家族ごとにガイドしてくださると思うので、それぞれのペースで体験できると思います。

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

Reviewed by: なお

The weather looked nice, so I made a reservation the day before. I chose a plan that allowed me to borrow outerwear, a knit hat, gloves, and snow boots. On the day of the visit, I received a call about 10 minutes before arrival, and we headed to Nopporo Forest Park as planned. After arriving, I put on the outerwear and snowshoes over my clothes and we set off! I was comforted by the guide's gentle way of speaking, and I was able to see woodpeckers and Eurasian owls, and I got some wonderful photos taken, which made me very satisfied. Thank you very much. If there's another opportunity, I would like to meet a black woodpecker.

お天気が良さそうだったので、前日に予約を入れました。
上下のアウター、ニット帽、手袋、スノーブーツをお借りできるプランにしました。
当日は到着10分くらい前にお電話をいただき、予定通り車で野幌森林公園へ。
到着後、着ている服の上から上下アウターやスノーシューを着用して出発!
ガイドさんの優しい話し方に癒され、キツツキやエゾフクロウも見られ、素敵な写真もとってもらって大満足でした。
ありがとうございました。
次があれば、クマゲラにも会いたいな。

My first snowshoe experience. 初めてのスノーシュー

Reviewed by: かずぞう

I came to Asahiyama Memorial Park, which is less than a 30-minute drive from Sapporo, to experience snowshoeing for the first time. The guide was very good at storytelling and took great photos and videos. Snowshoeing was not difficult and was a wonderful gear to enjoy the snowy landscape. I was able to see a long-tailed tit from a distance, and I managed to capture it on video, although the image doesn't clearly show that it's a long-tailed tit. The weather was perfect, and it was a very enjoyable tour.

初めてのスノーシューを体験するために札幌市内から車で30分もかからない旭山記念公園に来ました。
ガイドさんはとてもお話が上手で、映える写真や動画もとって下さいました。
スノーシューは難しいことはなく、雪原を満喫するのに素晴らしいギアでした。
シマエナガも遠目に見ることができ、何とか動画に撮れていました。
残念ながらシマエナガだとわかる画像ではないですが。
天気は最高でとても楽しいツアーでした。

First time snowshoeing. 初めてスノーシュー

Reviewed by: はなママ&パパ

It was my first snowshoe experience. The weather was great, and our tour guide Hiroaki was a wonderful person. I was able to listen to various fascinating stories not only about snowshoeing but also about life and history in the snowy country. Unfortunately, I couldn't meet the Siberian jay or the Ezo red squirrel this time, but I still had a fantastic time. Asahiyama Memorial Park, which is very close to downtown Sapporo, is also enviable. The sushi restaurant you recommended on the way back was very delicious.

初めてのスノーシュー体験でした。
お天気にも恵まれ、ツアーガイドのhiroakiさんもとても素敵な方で、スノーシューだけでなく、雪国の生活、歴史等々さまざまなお話をとても興味深く聞くことができました。
残念ながら今回はシマエナガ、エゾリスに会うことはできませんでしたが、それにも増して楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
札幌中心部からとても近い場所にある旭山記念公園も羨ましいです。

My wife, at 66 years old, experienced the snow-covered mountains for the first time, and the unique snowshoes were amazing! 😊😊 嫁は66才初めての雪山☃️☃️で、唯一無二のスノーシューは、最高でした😊😊

Reviewed by: okabe

Walking through the deep snow on snowshoes felt like entering another world, and this was the most enjoyable part of our trip to Hokkaido. For my wife, who experienced snow for the first time, walking in the snowy mountains was a bit anxiety-inducing, but it turned into an unforgettable experience. The guide's assistance was also excellent.

After finishing with the snowshoes and returning to the car, I discovered that I had dropped my wallet and smartphone along the way. The guide kindly accompanied me to search the snowy path we had taken. In the end, both my smartphone and wallet returned from the snowy mountains.

Thank you so much to the guide and everyone who helped look for my wallet in the mountains! 😊😊

深々と降る雪山を歩いたスノーシューは、別世界にきた感じて、僕たちの北海道旅行は、これが一番楽しかった。雪が初めての嫁にとっては、雪山を歩くのは不安はあったものの、それを忘れさせる程、感動の体験でした。ガイドさんの案内も最高。。
スノーシューが終わり、車🚗に戻って、私は、途中に財布👛、スマホ📱を落としたことが発覚、ガイドさんに、辿った雪道を探しに付き合っていただきました。結果、スマホ、財布も雪山から、帰ってきました。
ガイドさん、山で、財布を探してくれたかた、本当にありがとう😊😊

My first snowshoeing experience! It became the best memory! 初めてのスノーシューイング体験!最高の思い出になりました!

Reviewed by: まい

I participated in mid-March, and it snowed heavily the night before, allowing us to enjoy snowshoeing in the fluffy fresh snow!

Led by an experienced guide, we walked through the park/forest, taking photos at picturesque spots and making snow angels. I learned a lot about the animals, trees, and plants in Asahiyama Memorial Park. We were lucky to find adorable red fox footprints and even spotted a long-tailed tit! I never expected to have such a wonderful outdoor experience so close to downtown Sapporo.

On the day of the event, the shuttle service to the hotel was very convenient, and if requested, we could also rent a full set of gear, including clothing and shoes. They even had shoes available in size 30 cm and larger sizes like XL for my partner!

Advice:
- In the world of white snow, the weather was excellent, and the sunglasses I brought were very helpful.
- Since I tend to get cold easily, I overdressed, which was a mistake. They provide warm outerwear for rent, and since there is a lot of physical activity, depending on the temperature that day, it might be good to wear something easy to take off and adjust while changing in the car before departure. Once you set off, it’s difficult to remove inner layers.
- Another thing I regret is not applying sunscreen or lip balm on my lips. My lips got sunburned and were painful for several days.

3月中旬に参加しましたが、前の晩からしっかりめに雪が降り、ふかふかの新雪の中でスノーシューイングを楽しむことができました!

経験豊富なガイドさんに連れられ公園/森の中を歩く中、映えスポットで写真撮影をしてくださったり、スノーエンジェルをつくったり。旭山記念公園にいる動物、木々や植物について教えて頂き大変勉強にもなりました。運良く可愛らしいキタキツネの足跡を見つけたり、シマエナガにも会えました!札幌の市街地からすぐの場所でこんなに素敵なアウトドア体験ができると思いませんでした。

当日はホテルへの送迎や、お願いをしておけばウェアやシューズも一式借りることができ大変便利でした。パートナー用に靴は30cm、XLの大きいサイズでも借りることができました!

アドバイス:
・白銀の世界の中、天気が非常によく、持参していたサングラスがとても役に立った。
・寒がりなので厚着をしてしまい、失敗。レンタルは上下温かいアウターを用意してくださる+運動量も多いので、当日の気温にもよると思うが出発前、車の中での着替えの際に脱ぎ着・調整しやすいものを着ておくと良いかもしれない。出発してしまうとインナーを脱ぐのは難しい。
・もう一つの反省は、唇にも日焼け止めかリップを塗っておくべきだったこと。唇だけ日焼けをしてしまい数日間痛かったです。

We participated as a family! It was my wife's first time seeing the accumulating snow, and she was really excited and having fun! The kids were looking forward to observing animals and were delighted to see wild squirrels and various small birds! It was a bit disappointing that we couldn't see the Ezo owl, which we wanted to see the most.

Experience the snow in Sapporo. 札幌の雪を体験

Reviewed by: carpdx

I was picked up at the north exit of Sapporo Station, and it took about 20 minutes by car to reach Sapporo Memorial Park.

If you make a paid reservation for a set of winter clothing in advance, you can borrow a hat, top and bottom wear, shoes, and gloves. However, unfortunately, it seems that this clothing set was left as is after the last customer used it. The inside of the shoes was wet. If you're concerned about this, it might be better to prepare your own.

You walk around the park wearing something like snowshoes. You climb up slopes and slide down them, and you can even fall backward in the snow. It was a plan that you can enjoy precisely because it's in the snow.

It seems unlikely that we will see the long-tailed tit. Everyone I asked in Sapporo said, "Basically, you can't see them." I was able to confirm a few birds in the park with the naked eye, but capturing them on camera is also quite difficult.

The tour guide took several photos for us, which you can receive via email or AirDrop if you have an iPhone.

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!

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.

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.

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>

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.

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。

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。

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

I felt great being surrounded by nature; it truly felt revitalizing. It was interesting to hear various stories amidst Hokkaido's great outdoors. The coffee break along the way was delightful, and it made me realize that I need a bit more leisure in my life. I would also like to participate in cycling and other activities in the summer.

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>

First snowshoe experience. はじめてのスノーシュー

Reviewed by: まつもと

I participated in a 2-night, 3-day trip to Sapporo in late January 2017.

I couldn't make it to the Snowshoeing at Heidi Farm, so I switched to the Snowshoeing in the Forest of the Ezo Owl.

Ezo Owl Forest Snowshoe Tour - Enjoy Animal Observation!
<Includes pick-up from Sapporo City / January to March / Sapporo City>
https://www.veltra.com/jp/japan/hokkaido/sapporo/a/126900

The location was a natural park called "Showa no Mori Noboribetsu Nature Reserve," which was about a one-hour drive from hotels in Sapporo.

It was my first time snowshoeing, but I got used to it quickly. Walking on the fluffy snow was a very enjoyable experience.

The outside temperature was around -10°C, but I didn't feel cold at all; in fact, I was quite comfortable and even a bit sweaty.

I couldn't find the Ezo Owl, but there were many cute little birds like woodpeckers and possibly a Japanese Pygmy Woodpecker.

We dug into the snow to make a table and chairs, and took a break with hot tea brewed by our guide. It was touching when a little bird came and perched on my hand while I was eating chocolate during the break.

The guide's stories were very interesting throughout the tour. Even in the car during the pick-up, I learned about local stories from Hokkaido and Sapporo, which made the rest of my trip in Sapporo much more enjoyable.

When I mentioned that I wanted to go to the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market instead of the hotel on the way back, they kindly took me there.

Also, I was happy to receive the photos taken by the guide via AirDrop on my iPhone right before we parted ways (of course, for free).

I'm glad I participated. If I have the chance to go to Sapporo again, I would like to join tours organized by this company, not just snowshoeing.

場所は、「昭和の森野幌自然休養林」と言う自然公園で、
札幌市内のホテルから車で1時間弱の所にありました。

はじめてのスノーシューでしたが、すぐに慣れました。
ふわっふわの雪の上を歩くのはとても楽しい体験でした。

外気温-10℃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。

エゾフクロウは見つけられませんでしたが、
キツツキやアカゲラ?など可愛い小鳥が沢山いました。

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。
休憩中にチョコを食べていると小鳥がやってきて手に止まったのが感動的でした。

終始ガイドさんの話がとても面白かったです。
送迎の車内でも、北海道や札幌の地元話などを教えて頂き、
その後の札幌旅行がとても楽しくなりました。

帰りはホテルではなく札幌中央卸売場外市場に行きたいと伝えたところ、
快くそこまで送って頂きました。

また、別れ際にガイドさんが撮影した写真を
