Our Vans
Often conditions allow us to explore the many different resorts and mountains around the Annupuri area and to do this we have two specifically-outfitted 4WD vans. The vans are set up with MP3 players and each one can carry 5 guests and gear in total comfort. The vans are also fitted with snow specific tyres and are part of an extensively serviced roadside assist program and in addition to this, we run a maintenance schedule of the tightest standards possible. Some of Japans best kept secrets are just 30 minutes away and should the wind blow too hard or conditions get too deep, the vans are on standby and ready to go. Having the dual vans also gives us the ability to run people into town and do pick-ups at the base of some of the unlifted and unaccessed backcountry. Due to the fact that Hokkaido gets snow down to sea level it's possible to see the ocean with snow on the beach and capture a once-in-a-lifetime holiday snap. Please speak with our onsite management team regarding costs and availability of vans.
In addition to our own vans, the Annupuri area is fully serviced by a free shuttle bus system that is included with your pass and allows you to access nearby Hirafu and Hanazano, should you wish to check out the bars and niteclubs there or simply want a change of scenery for the day. The buses run every 20 minutes.
