Backcountry Guides

Rising Sun is a professional guiding operation with a dedicated team of certified local and international ski/snowboard guides. They offer exclusive, custom trips to Japan`s best backcountry terrain and look forward to working with you to assemble your unforgettable Japan powder experience.

At Rising Sun, backcountry skiing is our specialty and our qualified guides will take you beyond the ski resort boundaries and away from the crowds to find fresh lines and deep untouched snow. In Hokkaido there is snow and mountains everywhere and without the requirement of a chairlift the options are limitless.

Much like our lift assisted trips, we aim to be as flexible as possible and will ultimately decide our ski touring destination on the day of the trip based on weather conditions, snow stability and your interests.
