Shirakami Sanchi Trekking (with guide)
Join us for a walk in the forest where life revolves around life!
The "Happo Town Shirakami Guides' Group," made up of guides who have completed the town-sponsored guide training course, can lead nature observation and eco-tours, so it is recommended that you be accompanied by a safe, fun, and informative guide when climbing the Shirakami Sanchi.
≪Course Details≫.
(1) Futatsumori Course - Panoramic view of the Shirakami Mountains
This 1,086-meter-high mountain is located on the west side of the "World Heritage Area" in the Shirakami Mountains, which stretch along the border between Akita and Aomori prefectures. From the summit, visitors can enjoy a 360-degree panorama of the natural beech forest, Mt. (Due to the collapse of the access road, climbing is not permitted for the time being.)
(2) Tomeyama Course - A mountain where logging has been held back since the Edo period (1603-1868)
A forest that has been protected since the feudal era, giant beech trees over 300 years old can be seen in the satoyama. Since Tomeyama is a forest that has been protected by the local people, we ask that you be accompanied by a guide when entering the mountain so as not to disturb the forest.
(3) Course - The Formative Beauty of the Manase Valley
This is a famous place for the Manase Canyon, which originates in the Shirakami Sanchi (Mt. Shirakami). The clear stream flowing between large basalt rocks, oddly shaped rocks, and holes is beautiful.
In addition, the Twelve Lakes Course and the Goshodai Course are also available. Please contact us for details.
