Tour Highlights

• "Dual Skiing" – Glide Down the Slopes in a Wheelchair

  Experience "Dual Skiing" or "Bi-Skiing" at Fujimi Kogen Resort, one of Japan's premier universal design outdoor fields. You can board the ski lift and glide down the slopes while remaining seated. Because the equipment is operated by a specially trained instructor (pilot), anyone—including those with no skiing experience or difficulty with trunk stability—can enjoy the exhilarating rush of the wind.

• Stay at a Barrier-Free Inn in Kamisuwa Onsen

  Enjoy your stay in a Universal Design Room at "Kamisuwa Onsen Shinyu," offering panoramic views of Lake Suwa. The inn provides ultimate relaxation with features such as a private hot spring bath accessible via wheelchair and dinner served in a private dining room designed for easy access and minimal movement.

• Comfortable Door-to-Door Transport

  We arrange accessible taxis equipped with lifts (or private charter taxis) for transfers from the station. You can travel safely to your destination without any worry about navigating snowy roads.

Itinerary

Fujimi Kogen Resort (Dual Ski Experience)

Known as a "Universal Field," this resort is a pioneer of barrier-free skiing in Japan. Using French-made "Dual Ski" and "Bi-Ski" seated equipment, you can enjoy the entire experience—from boarding the lift to gliding down the slopes—without ever leaving your seat.

Since a skilled instructor pilots the ski from behind, you do not need to worry about steering or braking. This allows you to purely focus on the exhilarating speed and the stunning winter scenery.

Kamisuwa Onsen

Located in the Kamisuwa Onsen area—famous for its "skin-beautifying waters"—this healing inn actively incorporates universal design.

The facility is entirely step-free and features wheelchair-accessible restrooms as well as a private rental bath equipped with a lift. This ensures that even guests requiring assistance can enjoy a safe and relaxing soak in the hot springs. The panoramic views of Lake Suwa from the guest rooms are also spectacular.

Hotel Happoen Shikanoyu

Designed with barrier-free accessibility in mind, this hotel features step-free flooring between guest rooms and hallways to ensure smooth wheelchair navigation. Guests can enjoy a relaxing and leisurely stay while admiring the beautiful scenery of the changing seasons.
