Trive Mountain Guides Hokkaido | Making people who love skiing happy | Hokkaido – Introducing the national backcountry guide club –

The fun, challenge, peace and excitement you can find in the nature of Hokkaido

The joy of skiing down snowy mountains. The opportunity to take on a challenge. The peace and excitement of being in nature. Trive Mountain Guides Hokkaido offers these three experiences through the activities of backcountry skiing and snowboarding. This

guide service, based in Niseko, Hokkaido, was started in 2016 by guide Kazuyoshi Arai, who has extensive experience and spent seven years thoroughly studying safety on snowy mountains.

To ensure that you can enjoy Hokkaido's snow forever, we offer guided tours in various areas, including the Niseko mountain range, as well as the mountains around Kiroro, Rusutsu, Otaru, and Sapporo, as well as the mountains in the Asahikawa and Furano areas

Go to new places and make new discoveries

The ways to enjoy the mountain will vary depending on the mountain range and the conditions of the day. The concept is "Go to new places, even if just a little, and make new discoveries."

It all started with the idea that "even if you live far away from the snowy mountains, I want to support everyone so that they can focus on what they find meaningful in life, and through that time, I hope to be able to enrich their lives
.
