A COLD Hike up Mt AKAGI, Japan // Exploring Maebashi City
Mt Akagi is an incredible winter hike, with breathtaking terrain, and snow that never gets too deep, so all you need to hike it are crampons. A good mountain for a relatively beginner-friendly snow hike. It is a little distant from Tokyo, and while a day trip in and out from the city is possible, I'd recommend finding a way to stay the night to make things less hectic.
Here I stay the night at nearby Maebashi city, which also presents the chance for a mini city adventure the following morning. Fantastic!
Hike details on Yamap:
yamap.com/activities/29206896
Getting here:
From Shinjuku or Ikebukuro in central Tokyo, take the Shinkansen (or the slower Shonan Shinjuku Line) to Takasaki, and then transfer to the Ryomo Line to get to Maebashi. A bus from Maebashi takes you up to the vicinity of Akagi Visitor Center on weekends. Buses are infrequent, so check the timings and try to line them up.

      Hello. You're not likely to get (very) lost! It's not very secluded and the woods along the shores are not very large. There are also a lot of entry/exit points all along the trail so even if you do get lost you would not have to walk very far to get to the nearest road, where you can call a taxi in a pinch. My cellphone also had good geolocation throughout so that helps!

If you're relatively comfortable with speaking Japanese you should be able to do that even really close to your intended stay date - as long as you stay well clear of Golden Week. For a mountain hut that can be reserved by email (though you may still need to communicate in Japanese), you can try checking out Kumotori Sansou near the summit of Mt Kumotori.

    This is really cool Jason! We were there during spring/summer. Did you eat at Pierrot? Its famous, so im told, but i really didnt care for it! My wife and oldest were too scared to see the view at the summit of Mt Hakodate. It was busy for us too, but my youngest daughter and I loved it. Truly stunning. Are you going through Sapporo? Stop by the chocolate factory there and try the Shiroi Koibito if you havent, they were delicious. Oh youre going through Aomori! Amazing! If you get to Akita make sure to try Kiritanpo or Misotanpo. Both amazingly delicious specialties of the area. Ill be watching for more!

      Hey there thanks! Yeah I didn't get to try Pierrot, but I thought the exterior decor looked rather cool, and noticed multiple outlets too whereas I don't think I've seen it elsewhere in Japan before. I've actually been to Sapporo and Akita before and tried some of the things you mentioned, and also managed a night at Tsuru no Yu Onsen before it became as popular as it apparently is now. So this trip I decided we'd come down via Aomori and Iwate instead. Working on the next part :) Thanks for watching and commenting!
