  • Konnichiwa, everyone!
    It's been 2 weeks since my last upload so thank you so much for being so patient! As soon as we got back from this hike, we went straight to a trip around Japan so we have lots of videos coming up for you!
    This video was a hard one to edit! I wanted to put SOOOO much in it since this is one of the most beautiful hikes I've ever done! Mt. Shirouma is STUNNING. I wouldn't recommend it for beginners but if you have climbed a few mountains before, please hike up this mountain!
    Also, I am fully aware I look a little horrible in this video. Hahaha I didn't get enough sleep on the night bus plus I was sweating all over the place. But please don't let my face and sweat deter you from enjoying the views! Haha I hope you guys like it! I will be uploading day 2 in a few days!
    Arigathankyouuu for watching! I really appreciate it!

      It’s going to be incredible!! Which mountain lodge were you able to book? :) if you’re going up the Tsugaike Pond Route, it’s loooong and the first few parts are going to be super rocky! I suggest bringing amino vital. Lol After the pond, it gets a lot easier!

    This video was so good! I am looking at going in august and honestly my trip time is limited so I was hoping to try to summit in one day and head back down but after watching this I have realized i's probably better to just stay the night, get up see the summit and head back down haahha. Also how long did it take you to get to the top?

      Thank you so much for watching! :) I think staying the night would be best! Haha nothing beats the sunrise from up there! I think it took us around 7 hours to get to the ridgeline!

    Hello HaNa, I enjoyed both your videos on Mt. Shirouma, absolutely amazing hike and very well put together video.
    I had few questions about the hike if you don't mind answering:
    Which month did you do this hike?
    Which is the best month to hike in Northern Alps in Japan with less crowd?
    (I know July and August is the best month to hike, however we would like to avoid crowd, would last week of June be ok)

    • @whatchuHANAdo
      @whatchuHANAdo  Рік тому

      Hello Soniel! Thank you so much for watching both videos and giving me some love for it! :)
      We climbed Shirouma August 5-6, 2022! It wasn't extremely busy during the hike. Best months to hike are May to June, although you may encounter snow early May, or around August to mid October. :) It depends on which mountain you want to climb. Did you have a mountain in mind?

      Hello! Thank you so much for watching the video! I’m happy you liked it! :)
      We took an overnight bus from Tokyo to the trailhead! :) We left Tokyo at around 11:00PM. There are 2-3 rest stops along the way for bathroom breaks and food if you get hungry. You can also just stay in the bus to sleep. If I remember correctly, we got to the trailhead very early, before 6:00AM. :)
