Escursione di un'intera giornata nella stagione verde a Sapporo e Hokkaido con onsen.

What an incredible day we had! We were challenged, rewarded, Chris was great at pointing out any risks—bears, trip hazards, and anything else we needed to be aware of—which made us feel prepared. We crossed bridges, followed beautiful streams, and enjoyed scenery that seemed to change around every corner. Chris kept us captivated with his amazing knowledge of the local flora. We learned so much along the way! Reaching Mt Soranuma under magical, clear skies was brilliant after all the hard work. What a monster day—tough, beautiful, and unforgettable. Thanks, Chris, for an awesome adventure!

The hike was amazing with spectacular views. Our guide Chris did a wonderful job. He was patient and responsive to our requests. We ended the hike with a relaxing onsen. Definitely worth the hike. Arigato gozaimasu!

My experience with Chris was excellent. The scenery was breath taking, hiking into the the clouds. As a first time hiker in Japan, the advise from Chris was very valuable. He took me for the best route he thinks is best for that day. I did not know that bears was a local hazard in Japan so I was glad he showed me how to stay safe. Furthermore, his knowledge on the local customs and culture was invaluable; it made me much more comfortable knowing how to behave like a respectful tourist.

Rained the day of, so we chose to adjust the plan. Chris ensured we had a wonderful experience despite the hiccup.

Chris was professional, very knowledgeable on the area and super accomodating. A novice to trekking I got a great experience of a good climb , with spectacular views of the area and no question was left unanswered. Exactly what I was after! Highly recommended!

I had a great time with Chris at Trekmate Hokkaido. I was doing a long solo trip around Asia and I wanted to go hiking in a remote area in Hokkaido. Other hiking tours had strict schedules that would have made it hard to fit into my trip. It would have been really hard to go solo as public transportation is complicated and cabs are expensive. Chris put together a great custom schedule for the exact dates I was going to be in Hokkaido. We did a three-day tour and went up the Tokachi-Dake, Mt Oakan, and Mt Meakan. I was picked up at my hotel in Sapporo by Chris in the Trekmate van. We drove four hours directly to the first trailhead. I was very impressed by the level of preparation. Chris brought several food options, and we had the unique experience of eating at the summit! That night we slept at an onsen/hostel. The next day we camped at a campsite. During the hikes, I enjoyed how Chris explained the geological history of the volcanoes and he pointed out local wildlife. I highly recommend this experience if you are looking for a custom hike in Hokkaido that includes transportation.
