Cross Country - Nordic Rental

Nordic or Cross Country skiing is a great addition to your winter skiing holiday. Escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy the smooth feeling of lightweight skiing, fast and efficiently through beautiful terrain.

We have a large range of nordic track skis available for rent from our shop in Furano, including both Classical and Skating options. This is a great way to start or finish your day on the hill.

Nordic Tracks. Nordic skiing can be done anywhere, but this light weight equipment requires groomed tracks cut for eater classic or skate technique. These can be found in central Hokkaido in the following places:

Furano Resort. About 5 minutes walk from the Kitanomine gondola are the local nordic track systems, kept groomed for the local nordic skiing community. Approximately 2 kms with some good climbs and cruising sections on the flat. Cut for classic and skating.
Asahi Dake. Superb cruising through mixed forest of Hokkaido Red Pine and Silver Birch. Trails start right opposite Nutappu and Shirakabaso Lodges in the Asahi Dake village. 7.5 kilometres cut for classic and skating, although mid winter the snow is so dry it is hard to compact for skating!
Tomamu. Although short, there are some beautiful trails on the flats at the base of the resort and are cut for both skating and classic.
Asahikawa. This city has a an excellent xc skiing park, at Tomisawa. Here there has 15 km of cut tracks, which are well maintained. The Tomisawa area also hosts the Japanese Vasa race (21st March) and tracks to 25 km are prepared for this race. Best access if travelling by yourself is taxi from Asahikawa station. About 15 minutes.

Limited Stock available. Pick up from our Tomamu base. Contact us for rates and availability.
