   Hiking in Hokkaido: Your Guide to Outdoor Activities & Adventure Travel.

  When the warmer seasons embrace Hokkaido, a captivating adventure awaits those who seek solace in nature’s embrace. Known for its vast, untouched landscapes and cooler climate, Hokkaido outdoor activities offer a unique experience that sets it apart from the rest of Japan.

1. Crowd-Free Trails: Unlike bustling trails elsewhere, Hokkaido’s hiking routes remain blissfully uncrowded. Here, you can immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the wilderness without jostling for space. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a curious beginner, the solitude of Hokkaido’s trails invites introspection and connection with the natural world.
2. Accessible Routes via Trekmate Hokkaido: The ease of access is another allure. Thanks to the Trekmate Hokkaido network, hikers can effortlessly explore the island’s diverse terrain. From rolling plains to rugged mountains, the well-maintained trails beckon adventurers of all levels. Whether you’re chasing panoramic vistas or hidden waterfalls, Hokkaido’s mountain trails await your personal discovery.
3. Abundant Unspoiled Nature and Wildlife: Much of Hokkaido’s wilderness remains untamed—a sanctuary for flora and fauna. As you traverse the trails, keep your eyes peeled for elusive creatures: red foxes, sika deer, and even the majestic Steller’s Sea eagle. The rustling leaves, the scent of pine, and the distant call of birds create a symphony of serenity—a reminder that in Hokkaido, nature reigns supreme.

    We can tailor a hiking or trekking experience to meet your needs such as an easy hike that takes in the beautiful flat trail leading to the mountain hut below Muine Yama to the southwest of Sapporo, or the more challenging multi-day peaks of Poroshiri or Rausu in the south and northwest of Hokkaido respectively. Explore extinct, dormant, and semi dormant volcanoes such as the Toya-Shikotsu National Park peaks of Kamui dake, Eboshi dake, Tarumae, Fuppushi  and Eniwa dake. There are also many awesome routes on the Oshima Peninsula such as E-Yama and the imposing stratovolcano Koma-ga-dake.

 Then, at the end of your Hokkaido hiking or trekking experience, finish off with an awesome visit to one of the many hot springs (onsen) found all over Hokkaido. Many are tattoo friendly, so there's no need to worry about being refused entry. We can arrange everything.
