Hakuba Happo pond Reflection, Mt.Karamatsu course for an introduction to mountain lodge or Mt.Goryu course for a fierce rock ridge

Grading: 

Happoike, a beautiful natural pond reflecting the Hakuba mountains like a mirror. The course is accessible by gondola to an elevation of 1830m, and is easy for beginners in the Alps. After crossing rocky gullies and high pine forests and climbing up the scenic route of Happo One, you will reach the Karamatsudake summit lodge. Mt.Karamatsu is about 20 minutes from the lodge and offers a panoramic view of Mt.Goryu. Plan①Mt.Karamatsu course mountain level5 Stay overnight at Karamatsudake Summit lodge. Mt.Karamatsu, 5 km one way with an elevation gain of 860 m. This is a leisurely course that allows you to arrive before noon. Located a 20-minute walk from the summit, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Mt.Tateyama, Mt.Tsurugi. This relatively safe course is recommended for those who are making their debut in a mountain lodge. On the last day, we will descend the same course. You will have plenty of time for a hot spring bath after descending. Plan②Mt.Goryu course mountain level9 Karamatsudake summit lodge to the difficult "Ushikubi no Kusariba. A rocky ridgeline walk with a sense of altitude will continue. We will stay at Goryu lodge, which is popular for its "I love mountains, I love sake" T-shirt. On the last day, we climbed up the rocky terrain for about an hour to reach Mt.Goryu, a 2814-meter-high mountain famous in Japan. The ridge line you have hiked is beautiful and will fill you with a sense of accomplishment. On the way down, we will take the gondola down from 1500m above sea level via Toomi Ridge. On the first day, we will only move around and rest well in preparation for the climb. We will stay at "Minshuku Rokujukkari" There is a hot spring and a supermarket nearby.
