The stunning Japanese Alps stretch from the Pacific Ocean to the Sea of Japan, with beautiful scenery throughout. In the Northern Alps in Toyama Prefecture is the famous Tateyama-Kurobe Alpine Route. This route stretches across a mountain range and goes over magnificent gorges, charming lakes, and seemingly endless highlands. During the winter, this area is transformed into a white paradise, with snow-covered walls that can stretch as high as 20 meters (60 feet). On this tour, you will ride one of our company’s buses to get to the highest point, in Murodo, where you can walk along this snow wall and enjoy the other winter sights in the area. On the way there, we will have a brief stop in Ashikuraji, the traditional start of the climb to Mt. Tateyama.
