Snowshoe through enchanting frozen forests and wetlands
Winter in Sarobetsu coats the forests of Sakhalin spruce trees in deep snow. Venture through the woods in traditional kanjiki snowshoes made from bamboo as you explore a slumbering wilderness of intense beauty. As you approach the edge of the forest, a breathtaking snowscape will stretch ahead of you, dominated by a towering Mongolian oak tree. Your guide will lead you as you trek onwards to frozen wetlands encased in ice, an enchanting sight in a place usually inaccessible during other seasons.
