After renting your bicycle, we start our journey from Sun Sun Park Hakuba and leisurely ascend the scenic Azumino Art Line. We'll ride along the serene eastern shores of Lake Aoki and Lake Nakatsuna, making our way to the picturesque Lake Kisaki.
As we pass the charming old Jigatake ski resort on prefectural road 325 and enter the tranquil Kurosawa forest road, we'll soon arrive at the Kashima Yari ski resort! This is the easiest route to climb the beautiful Oguma Kurosawa Forest Road.
From there, we follow the ridge to reach the breathtaking Lake Kisaki lookout point. Then, we descend to the lake and take the peaceful western route along its shore, finally returning to our starting point at Sun Sun Park Hakuba.

Mountain Guide
I'm a JMGA certified hiking guide as well as one of Nagano Prefecture's Official Mountain Guides for North Japan Alps.
My love for mountains and skiing brought me to live in countries like New Zealand, Canada and Europe (including Chamonix) as a ski instructor and as a tour coordinator for over 10 years.
In Chamonix I was inspired by the IFMGA mountain guides, who were my mentors and who had a lot of compassions, and I started to aspire to become a guide myself.
Currently, I live in the village of Hakuba and guiding mainly in the mountains of North Japan Alps.
My motto is to "have fun safely" and I value the communications I have with clients whilst guiding.
If you want to feel glad you came at the end of the day, then join me to enjoy the Japanese mountains together!
