Backcountry safety equipment is included in the price of every tour. You will be required to purchase a lift ticket and provide your own lunch. Please wait until the morning of the tour to purchase lift tickets so that the guide can advise you on the type of ticket required.
We strongly recommend using touring skis or a splitboard, as this makes the hike much easier and gives you more time for extra turns! Alternatively you may need to rent powder skis or a powder snowboard, it can get quite deep here in Japan! Please see our Rentals page or contact us for advice on which rentals you will need and where to get them.
