A spectacular winter view of Zao by helicopter
The Zao mountain range, located on the border between Miyagi and Yamagata prefectures, is a fascinating field with spectacular and mysterious landscapes such as "Okama," a crater lake, and "Juhyo" (frost-covered trees), which are formed when ice and snow collect on Japanese fir trees. You can see the entire view from a luxury helicopter cruising ride♪
In winter, the road to the "Okama" crater lake is closed, making it inaccessible to most visitors, and the beauty of the endless ice tree fields is something you can only see with this plan!
The package includes accommodation in a rental villa as well as a glamping experience, and is recommended for those who want to fully enjoy Zao in the winter☆
Driving off-road on snow with quad bikes and Jimnys!

Ride on a crawler-equipped Polaris ATV, a 4WD quad bike which is No.1 in the U.S. market, or a fully-fledged small 4WD Jimny through off-road courses and vast snow fields! You will experience a thrill and exhilaration that you cannot feel on an ordinary drive♪ As an additional option you can also experience snowmobiling here!
