Prep

Generally you need...

Backpack 30L~, hiking boots or shoes, rain jacket, pants, warm layers, pack cover, pack liner, sunscreen, sunglasses, hat, water bottle or bladder, snacks

​

Depending where you go and season, what you need is slightly different.

Please check at each guiding page, and make sure you bring them. 

If you want to buy some mountain equipment in Japan, "Mont-bell" is reasonably good in quality and price.

We do not provide any rental gears at the moment.

But for your convenience of whole trip in Japan, the rental company, "Yamarent" is available.

You can rent and return them by shipping.

Japanese size is smaller usually, be careful of that and get the comfortable one in size. 

We do not cover your insurance. Although the guide is well trained in first aid and know the logistics when some accident happens, we would strongly recommend to have insurance that covers mountain activity.

We do not make a booking of your hotel before and after the hiking. We take care of the hut reservation only.

For example, the trip starts Aug. 5th and end in 7th. (2 night 3days)

We make a reservation for mountain hut of 5th and 6th. You need to book your hotel in a town for 4th and 7th.

When you make a reservation with us, we will explain where you need to stay before the trip and where you can stay after the trip.  Also, we will help you what to do with your luggage. 

Depending on where we go and the group size, we use public transport (bus and train,) taxi or our car.

We will organize pick up and drop off.
