Anyone who wants to enjoy ice climbing can participate.
The lesson will be held at Kimyotaki Falls in the Yonago Fudo area, a mecca for ice climbing.
The main focus will be top rope climbing, but depending on your skill level, you may also be able to climb with a pseudo-lead or install screws.
The Yonago Fudo area is known for its many difficult icefalls for advanced climbers and long approaches.
Kiyōtaki Falls is an introductory route in the Yonago Fudo area. Beginners can also enjoy it.
The approach can also be significantly shortened by using a snowmobile!
And for lodging, we stayed at the beautifully renovated Nekodake Sansou. Click here to read about the renovation. You can also check out the Nekodake Sansou accounts on Facebook and Instagram.
