Experience a spectacular wall of snow at the longest snow corridor in Japan!
The "Snow Corridor" in Hachimantai City is a spectacular spot with a series of magnificent snow walls that can be seen only from winter to spring. This snow corridor, which stretches along the Hachimantai Aspite Line at an elevation of 1,613 meters, opens from mid-April to late May and attracts many tourists.
Overwhelming scale snow wall
The main attraction of the Snow Corridor is the snow wall, which is 6 to 10 meters high. The experience of driving through the walls of silver snow that rise up on both sides of the road offers an extraordinary sensation of being lost in a snow labyrinth.
The height of the snow wall varies from year to year, but in years with particularly heavy snowfall it can reach 10 meters or more!
With the opening of the Aspite Line, you can enjoy a spectacular spring drive with exhilarating snowy scenery.
There is also an area where visitors can get out of their cars and walk among the snow corridors for a powerful photo opportunity.
Why not experience the fantastic "Snow Corridor" unique to Hachimantai this spring?
