Incredible guided traverse in Daisetsuzan National Park (Hokkaido), hiking in different mountains like Asahidake, Hakuundake, Chubetsudake and Tomuraushi, and staying in tents.
Daisetsuzan
4 Days
Jun - Aug
Lying in the center of Hokkaido, Daisetsuzan is the largest national park on the Island.
During this trip, I will guide you to Asahidake, Hakuundake, Chubetsudake and Mt. Tomuraushi. These are all my favorite and very popular hiking spots in this beautiful mountainous region.
The altitude difference isn’t big but we have a long day of walking everyday.
At night, we will stay at a basic mountain hut, so we’ll have to carry all our kit by ourselves. It also includes staying overnight in tents.
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in this adventure in Japan. We will go to the heart of Daisetsuzan National Park and have a great experience there!

Jun was amazing! He has a very deep understanding of where the good now is. After a few days of high temperatures, it was difficult to experience the famous "Japow", but he did! The 3 days we spent with him, he managed to find the good snow every time! He also knows the mountains very well, takes the good safety precautions, and is just a very pleasant person to have as a guide! Thanks a lot Jun!

Great 2 days with Jun Isiguro : first day off-pist and second day backcountry. As a family of 4 with different levels in fresh and deep snow and tree runs on telemark, we feel very at ease with Jun-San. Thanks to him, we now have great memories of our holidays in Hokkaido !
