This immersive tour offers a unique exploration of both the surface and subterranean landscapes of this designated Quasi-National Park. After one hour drive from the port, our visit begins on the surface with a light guided hike across the vast Akiyoshidai Plateau. This landscape is renowned for its captivating and seemingly endless carpet of white limestone pinnacles, known as karren, that dot the emerald-green grass. Your local guide will provide insightful commentary on the unique geological history and ecological significance of this striking karst environment, setting the stage for the dramatic descent to follow.

The publicly accessible sightseeing course covers a well-maintained one-kilometer stretch, allowing for a comfortable exploration of its most celebrated features. The cave is famous for its dense, intricately shaped formations, including the Hundred Plates (Hyakumaizara), a stunning series of stepped, terraced flowstones resembling rice paddies and the Golden Pillar (Koganebashira), a colossal column that took millennia to form, rising impressively from the floor to the ceiling. This tour provides a compelling balance of outdoor activity and geological education, offering a professional and memorable deep dive into a world-class natural wonder. Good to Know: This tour involves about 3.5km (2miles) walking on different terrains. Hiking is about 2 km (1.2miles) with maximum 20m (6.5 feet) difference in altitude.

Mt. Haguro Pilgrimage - 600 Steps

3,5 часа
This tour is a simplified version of the tour to Mount Haguro giving guests the opportunity to connect with the mountain's sacred history by combining a partial ceremonial climb with a comfortable transfer to the summit. This experience focuses on Mt. Haguro, which symbolizes the Present in the ancient Dewa Sanzan pilgrimage known as the Journey of Rebirth. The spiritual journey commences as you enter the sacred domain through the Zuishinmon Gate, the traditional entrance for seekers since the 6th century. Here, you will follow a portion of the original pilgrim's path, undertaking a manageable ascent of 313 weathered stone steps. This initial trek leads through the mystical, ancient cedar forest directly to the magnificent Five-Story Pagoda (Goju-no-to), a designated National Treasure. This impressive structure stands 29 meters tall and dates back to its 1608 restoration, serving as a stunning centerpiece amid the towering, centuries-old cedars. After exploring the Pagoda, we will return to the base area and board a comfortable coach for a scenic, direct transfer to the top of Mt. Haguro. This ensures all participants reach the mountain's pinnacle with ease and safety. We will then continue the visit to Sanjin Gosaiden, this grand shrine complex is the central sanctuary where the deities of all three sacred Dewa mountains are jointly enshrined. The site beautifully represents the unique and harmonious blend of Buddhism and Shinto that has defined the spiritual character of this mountain for over fourteen centuries. Good to know: This tour includes a climb of 313 steps up and down. If you feel unable to complete the full ascent, you are welcome to rest midway and rejoin the group as they descend. Please note that stopping early means you will miss part of the visit and commentary.

Cultures of Aomori

3,5 часа
Leaving the port behind your first destination is one of Japan's most significant archaeological treasures. Sannai Maruyama was a large, stable village that flourished during the Jomon period, an era spanning from approximately 3,900 B.C. to 2,200 B.C. This prehistoric Japanese culture is distinguished by its intricate straw-rope pattern earthenware (known as Jomon), sophisticated settlements, and the use of large, pillar-supported longhouses. The site provides a captivating look at a society that thrived for millennia, demonstrating advanced community development, long-distance trade, and ritual practices. As you explore the meticulously preserved excavation sites and expertly replicated structures, you will gain insight into the daily life, architecture, and enduring legacy of this ancient community. The journey continues to Seiryuji Temple, a center of spiritual reverence and home to a truly awe-inspiring monument. Here, you will encounter the Showa Daibutsu, a monumental bronze statue recognized as the largest seated Buddha statue in Japan. Standing at an imposing 70 feet (21.3 meters) tall and weighing 220 tons, this magnificent work embodies the temple's serene atmosphere and scale of devotion. Complementing the Daibutsu is the temple's stunning five-story pagoda. Constructed entirely of local hiba wood, a highly prized evergreen and special product of the Aomori region, this architectural marvel is a testament to traditional Japanese craftsmanship. In Buddhist cosmology, the pagoda's five tiers symbolically represent the five elements of the universe: earth, water, fire, wind, and the void/sky, with the entire structure serving as a representation of the cosmos itself. Good to know: Guests need to negotiate uneven and gravel path at Sannai Maruyama Site. At Seiryuji temple walk from parking lot to the Great Buddha is about 500m (0.3 miles) uphill.

Castle City of Hirosaki

5 ч 10 мин
Discover the vibrant world of the Tsugaru-han Neputa Mura, a dedicated facility offering an all-season experience of the famous Hirosaki Neputa Festival. This summer festival, designated as an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property of Japan, is rooted in the ancient tradition of Nemuri Nagashi, a practice intended to wash away the invisible "sleep demon" that caused drowsiness during the busy farming season. The Neputa Festival features a parade of gigantic festival floats lit up from the inside to show the colourful design based on scenes of historical events and myths among others. The museum also showcases local traditional craftwork as well as musical performances. Local craft products are available at the souvenir shop.Next, you will explore Hirosaki Castle, a National Historic Site; one of only 12 castles in all of Japan to maintain the original main donjon structure dating back from the samurai period. View the castle architecture up close as well as various other structures which constitute the castle premises. Presently, the castle is involved in a monumental, once-in-a-century project to repair its vital stone walls. This historic undertaking has required the entire three-story castle keep to be temporarily relocated several meters from its original position on the stone base to allow access for the repairs. Due to this ongoing refurbishment and the movement of the citadel, entry into the main keep is currently not possible. However, this provides a rare opportunity to witness an extraordinary chapter in the castle's history, observing the complex process of preserving a 400-year-old landmark for future generations. Good to Know: Guests are allowed entry to the garden of select residences, but indoor visit is not included.
