- Daisetsuzan National Park in Hokkaido, Japan has been described as a hiker's paradise because of its many pristine hiking tracks through the mountains. We decided to tackle Hokkaido's tallest mountain - Mt. Asahidake, which also happens to be an active volcano.
You can take a ropeway half way up the mountain which means its a manageable 2 and a half hour hike to the top. It's still fairly hard work though, so make sure you're feeling fit before you go (not like us haha!).

This is so cool 😍 I like it and will support you
Thank you! Your bush survival videos are so interesting!
Sure is beautiful up there! Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching! It definitely felt good to be at the top!
@@RoyandAimee no problem! We really enjoy making outdoor videos also
Amazing. It’s really worth a visit when this corona is over.
Definitely! We were amazed by many places in Hokkaido, the countryside was beautiful!
@@RoyandAimee I’ve been to Hokkaido once, but I think there are lots of places I should visit around there next time. Thanks for sharing this video.
Yeah there’s definitely a lot of places to visit for outdoor lovers! We hope you make it back there someday in the future. Thank you for watching!
@@RoyandAimee Thank you too.
I'm gonna be in Hokkaido next week and plan to hike Asahidake (using the ropeway :D) , a little bit worried cause I'm also not that fit..
Ooh have fun! Hope you get good weather! Yeah we were not very fit when we did this hike so we were huffing and puffing a bit, but it's relatively short so if you take it slow it should be fine 😊 Good luck!
@@RoyandAimee thank youuu! Really looking forward to it 😍
Looks quite easy hike..i live in Alps
Yeah it’s definitely not too strenuous, especially if you are from the Alps! You can keep hiking from Asahidake to other peaks and do a multi-day hike too.
Aimee: "Probably won't film at all going down because it's very slippery and I need my hands"
Roy: Challenge accepted.
Hahaha this comment made us laugh a lot 😂 Let’s just say Roy’s a little less clumsy than me 😆
looks great! which month was this video taken?
We hiked this one in the middle of September 😊
Anyone else going? Look for Kenji for us.
How did you get into Japan? Are westerners even allowed yet?
Yeah unfortunately Japan's borders are still closed at the moment to non-resident's 😔 We've been living in Japan since before covid began.
@@RoyandAimee Ahh, I see. That's wild. When do you think they'd open up? I completely forgot about the Olympics too
It's really hard to know. We've seen a couple of news articles recently about Japan possibly easing border restrictions for new foreign workers and students but we have no idea about tourists. Would love to see people being able to explore Japan again!

Feels like climbing up Mt. Coronet in Pokemon DPP
Haha right!?
I heard this mountain have kill people
Yeah unfortunately I believe people have passed away while climbing this mountain and others in Daisetsuzan National Park. The area gets a lot of snow and the weather can change quickly. Hiking in summer or early autumn on a good weather day is probably best 😊
