Whether it’s beneath the steel bridge frequented by trains or along the old railway lines, you’re free to explore. Embark on a snow trek along the edges of Lake Kinshu, taking in the sight of dormant tree buds and tracking the prints of wildlife. There’s a unique thrill in navigating a path less traveled, away from the usual tourist trails.

Additional Information
The man-made reservoir ‘Kinshuko’ was constructed roughly six decades ago, and its water levels vary with the seasonal changes.
Enjoy witnessing the seasonal landscape transformations.
In the months of January to March, which is the dry season, it’s possible to traverse the area surrounding Kinshu Lake.
Donning the traditional Japanese snowshoe ‘Kanjiki’
You can navigate through snow that towers nearly as tall as you are.
This unique view is exclusive to this time of year, complemented by the sight of dormant tree buds and tracks left by wildlife.
