I suddenly decided I wanted to see the snow and joined a tour. It was fun to learn about the animal tracks in the snow and the types of trees, discovering many things I would have overlooked on my own. Since I'm not used to snow, I thought it would be dangerous to walk alone, but there were clear warnings about the routes to be cautious of, so I didn't feel scared. I would like to participate again.雪を見に行きたいと突然思い立って、
ツアーに参加した。
雪の上にあった動物の足跡や、どんな木なのかについて解説をしていただけて、ひとりでは見過ごしてしまうような発見が多く楽しかった。
また、雪慣れしていないためひとりで歩くにはやはり危険だと思ったが、注意すべきルートはきちんとお声かけがあったので、怖くなかった。また参加したい。

I was able to see the drift ice washed up on the shore and the frozen icefalls from the water seeping out of the cliffs as I descended from the mountain along the coastline.
Wearing snowshoes really prevents you from sinking into the snow, allowing you to progress easily along the deep snow trails in the mountains!

With a full three hours of engaging content, I highly recommend this experience!
山から海岸沿いに下り、波打ち際に打ち上げられた流氷や、岩壁からしみ出た水や滝が凍った氷瀑を見ることができました。
スノーシューを履くと本当にズボッと雪に埋まることがなく、雪深い山の道なき道をどんどん進むことができます!
野生動物の痕跡や古代遺跡などの説明、途中休憩ではホットドリンクとお菓子のサービスもあり、とても手厚いガイドさんでした。優しい語り口で説明が分かりやすくてよかったです。
たっぷり3時間で充実の内容、強くオススメします!

Snowshoe drift ice trekking at Abashiri

Mr TTLee & friends
We had a great winter experience trekking with snowshoes to see the drift ice at Abashiri Hokkaido. Our guide Kaneko -san was excellent...spoke English and very professional in guiding us through the route where we saw deers, fox, birds and bear foot prints on the snow. We were rewarded with a beautiful sight of the drift ice off the sea shores (we can actually touch the drift ice) and Kaneko -san prepared for us hot chocolate drinks and biscuits. Had time for a small picnic and we took numerous… We had a great winter experience trekking with snowshoes to see the drift ice at Abashiri Hokkaido.

Had time for a small picnic and we took numerous photos of the drift ice and the nearby water fall. When you are at Abashiri, this is a must do activity... especially for us who come from a tropical country like Malaysia.
