Maguse Onsen Spring Touring (Skiers Only)

*This price is for a private tour for up to 4 people (larger groups are available on request). If you are interested in sharing a guide with a group, check out our Nozawa Group Backcountry Tours.*

This is one of best spring touring routes and a chance to get deep into the Nozawa backcountry.

Maguse Onsen is an isolated Japanese village with traditional open air hot springs very close to Nozawa. You can finish a morning of touring from the summit of Nozawa resort directly to Maguse. The route travels along a south facing ridge, so don’t expect a lot of steep and deep turns. But you can expect a gravity assisted journey through classic Japanese forest finishing at an authentic outside onsen. We limit this tour to skiers only as there are a number of flat and slightly uphill sections.

Whether you are a newbie to backcountry looking to learn how to use all the gear and access some untracked powder, or a veteran of the BC looking for something steep and deep, we will design a private tour to fit your needs!
