【OUTLINE】
View the towering snow walls on the mountain sightseeing road, “Zao Echo Line”. Magnificent, high-rising snow walls are created when the snow is finally removed from the road. The walls lining the road reach 10 meters tall and have the appearance of castle walls.
This stretch of snow is referred to as the Snow Corridor and can only be seen in its full grandeur for a short period of time in the spring. You will be able to walk through the Snow Corridor and look at it up close. A crawler-type snow vehicle called a Wind Monster will take you to the starting point of the walk where the "Daikoku-ten" (god of wealth) awaits you.
【HIGHLIGHTS】
- Take a picture of the striking contrast between the white snow and the black surface of the lave plateau around Daikoku-ten.
- Walk through snow walls right after they've been created, when they are at their highest and most beautiful.
- Only participants of the tour can walk on the road that is not yet open to traffic. Take your time and enjoy a leisurely walk.
- "Wild Monster" is fully air-conditioned, so anyone from a child to the elderly can enjoy the tour comfortably. Six vehicles can accommodate about 100 passengers at one time.
- You may also be able to enjoy cherry blossom viewing, as the tour period coincides with the flowering period.
- If you choose the optional deluxe class, an exclusive reception and a deluxe snow vehicle are available. It offers a comfortable ride in separate seats facing forward.

【DETAILS】
Miyagi Zao is a heavy snowfall area where the snow can grow to become 10 meters deep. It is the land of snow and ice.
This plan is only available to tour participants for a limited time, as the snow walls are created when groundskeepers remove snow from the Zao Echo Line.
The tour price includes a snow vehicle rental fee. Make sure to bring cold-proof boots!
※An exclusive reception is available for customers who choose the deluxe plan. This plan includes a complimentary drink at the exclusive lounge, a rental blanket in the snow vehicle, a portable body warmer, and all of the goods that come with the standard plan.
Transportation will be provided. The "Wild Monster" will take you to Daikoku-ten where you can gaze upon the Snow Corridor. The snow walls are highest during this season and look like white castle walls, and if you look closely, you can find striped patterns on the walls!
There will be no other cars on the road, as it is not yet open to traffic at this time.
Feel free to take pictures with the snow walls as your background.
A free shuttle bus service is available from Togatta Hot Spring or Active Resorts Miyagi Zao (reservation required). Bundle up with a thick jacket, knit cap, and gloves and come enjoy the famous Snow Corridor!
