Most wouldn’t expect an island to hold some of the world’s best powder, but Hokkaido proves that wrong. Hokkaido is an island in Japan where you’ll find abundant, dry and soft white stuff. Perfectly located where the Sea of Japan brings in cool air from Siberia dumping piles of powder on the island, Hokkaido is known for some of the best snowfalls in the world. Every year the island receives a massive annual snowfall, sometimes as much as 20 meters a year. But in Hokkaido, it’s not just about quantity. It’s almost all about quality. Powder hounds will fill their quota of long rides and runs over light and dry champagne powder.
The off-piste terrain on Hokkaido’s mountainous island is as good as its snow. Getting out of bounds gives you open slopes, steeps, tree runs, and cliffs comparable to any world-class mountain. Operated by some of the best backcountry guides on the island, our backcountry trips will satisfy even the hardest to please adventurer. Get involved with a freeriding camp at Sherpasride or take a trip with the experts at Hokkaido Backcountry Club. In Hokkaido, you’ll find impeccable snow and fill your memory bank in one of the best Japanese backcountry regions.
Snow trips to Hokkaido are popular for solo travelers, groups, party people and adventurous skiers and riders. The cultural delights in Japan are plentiful, with new foods, new company and new experiences awaiting its visitors. And if language barriers concern you, this place is a favourite of travelers around the world, meaning you’ll have guides to assist and of course new friends to converse with.
Hokkaido is known for being steep and deep, so these trips are best suited to intermediate, advanced and pro skiers and riders. As long as you can keep upright on powder, a Hokkaido ski trip is the perfect choice for anyone with a guaranteed good time in mind. From enjoying the epic powder to experiencing the unique brand of Japanese culture, Hokkaido should be etched onto your must-visit list.
Sometimes travel to Japan is considered fairly expensive, but ski trips to Hokkaido are much more affordable than you’d expect. Especially in comparison to skiing at many European and North American resorts. LUEX offers budget and medium-priced trips and accommodation.
