Rising Sun Run

Service Description

The Hakuba area has long been known as the mountain playground of Japan, with a stunning range of picturesque peaks rising sharply from the rice fields and simple homes at the center of town. Ski resorts dot the base areas of several of the major peaks, and double as the starting point for summer treks to these magnificent mountains. This tour takes us from one of those ski resorts, to the summit of one of those major peaks. We will set out in darkness by the light of our headlamps and take in the early summer sunrise along the trail before reaching the panoramic summit. From there we'll retrace our steps, enjoying the long, fun cruisy run back along the same ridge, before finally indulging in a delicious breakfast at a popular local cafe.
