Hokkaido Fix Tour

The Hokkaido Fix Tour is an epic road trip to Hokkaido's best ski resorts and backcountry zones. The tour will include lift-accessed backcountry and backcountry ski touring or splitboarding. Conditions will dictate this, assuming that you have a hefty appetite for powder.

The Hokkaido Fix tour is a fully customisable tour for PRIVATE GROUPS. 

The itinerary is based on a few days chasing the best powder in the Niseko area before heading to Central Hokkaido. Weather permitting you'll spend some time in the alpine of the Daisetsuzan range at places like Asahidake and Tokachidake. Or if it's dumping and alpine visibility is limited, the group may settle for some of Hokkaido's best top to bottom skiing at places like Furano, Kamui and Tomamu. The trip will wrap up in Sapporo with steep, powder skiing at places like Teine, Kokusai or Kiroro.

The itinerary is just a sample to provide a concept and price, and there are a lot of different ways to ski Hokkaido and this trip can be longer or shorter, visit more/less areas, take a different route etc. Just let RSGs know about your group, skiing interests, how much time you have and they'll put together a custom itinerary that fits your requirements.

The package includes all accommodation with daily breakfats, lift passes, guiding and the in-bound transfer from Chitose Airport to your Niseko accommodation and private transport in a comfy 4wd van to other ski areas on guided days and to Sapporo.

There are limited guides available for these tours so you will need to be quick to lock down a tour and date.

If you have any questions or want to check availability, you can make a booking request.

Ability & Equipment

To get the most out of this tour, RSGs recommend you be a MINIMUM advanced skier/boarder with powder skiing/riding experience.

Avalanche safety kit and ski touring or splitboarding equipment are required for all multi-day trips. Equipment rentals are available - please let us know if you have any questions.
