Overview

Your guide will take you along the forest trail which leads to the park, named Jigokudani. After a short hiking, you will see the troop of monkeys bathing in hot springs. There is no separating between you and monkeys, which makes this tour a unique and memorable experience.

You can enjoy a short hiking before and after the monkey section. This tour would be led by National licensed guide, so you can ask anything about the local information, as well.

Please wear warm clothes and non-slip shoes.
Please note that the monkeys of Jigoku Valley are wild animals and might not appear when we visit the Jikoku valley. Please try not to touch the monkeys and refrain from having eye contacts as they might become violent.

Please note that crampons will be attached to your shoes for this tour because you will be walking on snow-covered trails to meet the snow monkeys.

*The snow season is from December to mid-March each year; it is still possible to see monkeys in April, but there is no snow.
