Snow Country Trail with Columbia

We've often mentioned how good the hiking is in Snow Country, especially in autumn when the colors are breathtaking. The surrounding mountains are covered in trails and from the high peaks of Snow Country you get an amazing view of the surrounding towns and prefectures.

Renowned outdoor company Columbia are leading a long trek on the Snow Country Trail

It is a bit of a marathon hike over two days (but there are some cheeky bus rides in among the leg work) with a night in a mountain hut but promises to be a stunning experience.

If this is a bit far for you there are plenty of other great hikes around to fit all fitness and experience levels.
