Perfect Private Hike Around Sapporo, 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Chris was an outstanding guide! He was knowledgeable, patient, and clearly passionate about the area. Having him all to ourselves made the day feel personal. He tailored the pace to us, answered every question, and shared many details about the local landscape along the way.
Although the hike wasn’t rated as challenging, it had a few steep sections that really got the heart pumping. Chris kept us motivated and made sure we felt supported the whole time. The effort was absolutely worth it: the views from the top were spectacular, with sweeping panoramas of the surrounding mountains and city below.
If you're looking to get out of the city for a rewarding outdoor adventure near Sapporo, I can't recommend a private tour with Chris highly enough. Bring good shoes, plenty of water, and a camera. Thanks, Chris, for an amazing day!

Great Hokkaido hikemaster!
Would definitely recommend Chris as a tour guide for hiking in Sapporo. He led my family (myself, husband and 2 kids under 10) on a fantastic hike up the Soranuma dake trail up to the Bankei hut and lake. He was knowledgeable, friendly , good with the kids and made us all feel very safe. I don’t often write reviews but felt compelled to write this one as he was so good!

Great hike through National Park!
Chris is a native English speaker with 10 years of experience living in and hiking in Hokkaido. We enjoyed a moderate hike through a national park on a beautiful sunny day. Chris shared information on native flora and fauna. Much recommended!

A pleasent walk and bath
Chris who organised the trip was a good guide. We had a nice walk in the forest in the mountain, had some great views and finished with a pleasent bath in a local onsen.

Hiking Near Sapporo
Chris was super professional. He was very knowledgable about the flora and fauna and well prepared for any environmental uncertainties (weather/wild animals). He was also great to chat with and has plenty of interesting stories from his time in Japan.
Word of advice: Make sure to dress appropriately for the experience. I highly recommend boots for hiking and a full change of clothes afterwards too if you go to the onsen.

nice hike with good company
Chris took me on an out of the way hike up a nice ridge to a vantage point overlooking an old caldera. Would have never found this one on my own. He then brought me to an onsen that was equally nice, not overly crowded even though it was a weekend, and plenty of locals enjoying themselves (i.e. not a tourist trap).
