Walk between walls of snow that reach up to 20 meters high!
Attention all those who are looking forward to a trip to Japan! Since you came all the way don’t you want to conquer some really spectacular sights? If that’s the case, then you’ll definitely want to check out the amazing views of the “Snow Walls” (Yuki no Otani) located deep in a heavy snowfall area where they can only be seen from late April to late June. Set at an altitude of 2,450 meters in the Tateyama Murodo-Daira Plain, the roads can finally be cleared of snow around mid-April. Until around the end of June in early summer, you can find white walls of snow that reach up to 20 meters high depending on the year. Walking on the road between the giant walls of snow here has become a famous adventure sought by many visitors from all over the world.
Convenient short trip to the “Snow Walls”!
Heading to the “Snow Walls” requires one to pass through the high plains of the Tateyama-Kurobe Alpen Route, so it can cost a lot of time and money if you’re alone, even for Japanese people. It’s stressful just trying to figure out the complicated transportation involved!
Perhaps there are a lot of you who would say, “Isn’t there an easier way of getting there?” The answer is: Book a short trip managed by a trusted tour operator.
YOKOSO Japan Tour is awesome!
Of all the tour operators, YOKOSO Japan Tour is the best and caters specifically to foreign travelers. “Club Tourism” which is managed by YOKOSO Japan Tour was originally established in 1980. This is a company you can trust built upon the strong values of “safety” and “service” which Japan holds so highly.
You can rest easy as the homepage is offered in four different languages, and there are English speaking guides with the YOKOSO staff that can be found in every area around the country. And of course, the prices are affordable!
By the way, “Yokoso” means “welcome” in Japanese.
Explore Shirakawago on foot!
The 1 night 2 day tour to the Snow Walls also includes a trip to Shirakawago which is recognized as a World Heritage Site!
One of the main features that earned the Shirakawago village status as a World Heritage Site is that it isn’t merely an abandoned historic relic reconstructed for the benefit of tourism, but is rather still home to the many people who live under these miraculous thatched roofs. Here you can see some authentic views of traditional Japan!
Historical Hida Takayama: Location of the famous animated film, Your Name.
Furthermore, the 1 night 2 day tour also takes you to one of the locations found in the world famous Japanese animated film, Your Name, at Takayama’s castle town of Hida Takayama. You’ll feel like you’ve entered a time machine by walking around the historical townscape of shops and houses that has lasted since the 1800s.
Memorable experience on the Kurobe Alpen Route!

Enjoy your trip on comfortable buses!

Getting around on this particular course that lasts 1 night and 2 days is practically impossible unless you have your own car.
