Experience the awe-inspiring Snow Wall on a day trip to Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route. From Nagoya, you’ll travel to Murodo, where towering snow walls, sometimes reaching up to 20 meters high, are carved by snowplows each spring. During the winter, the area is closed due to heavy snow, but as spring approaches, snowplows work for about 2 months to create these massive snow walls. This spectacular sight, only available from April to June, offers a rare opportunity to walk through a winter wonderland as spring blooms around you.

As the travel time by coach is relatively long, the itinerary includes approximately 30 minutes of free time for shopping in Tateyama City both before and after visiting Murodo. This allows you to stay refreshed and enjoy the sightseeing experience in a comfortable pace. The tour then returns to Nagoya, bringing this memorable day trip to a perfect close.
