Niseko’s Sustainable Lifestyle:
Natural Food Experience & Canadian Canoe Tour

Tour start: The tour starts at from a designated meeting point in Sapporo. From here we move via private shuttle bus to Kyogoku Town`s Fukidashi Park.

Hike at the Fukidashi Park: In the Fukidashi Park, we will enjoy a small hike and fill our water bottles with the fresh spring water of Mt. Yotei (we will need it later in the day).

Making the Pow Bar: From the park we leave with our shuttle bus and drive straight to the Pow Bar Café, where we will get an introduction to the café from its owner, Ms. Ai Scott. Ms. Scott will give us insight into the process of how her company was founded and how it contributes to a sustainable lifestyle. She will even give us a demonstration of how her Pow Bar energy bars are made.

Lunch at the Pow Bar Café: In the café, we are served the Pow Bar Plate, a vegan salad dish full of local ingredients and superfoods. Also, all participants can finally use the spring water from Fukidashi Park to prepare themselves a delicious americano coffee.

Before we depart at via shuttle bus, all participants will receive a full set of Pow Bars (one of each flavor) as a souvenir!

Canoeing on the Shiribetsu River: From the Pow Bar Café, we head to Rankoshi Town’s

Lan Lan Park. Here, each participant will get his/her Canadian canoe with which we are heading straight into the Shiribetsu River, one of Japan’s clearest streams! Halfway through our canoe tour (around 2.5km), we will make a small tea break on the river, in the middle of Niseko’s beautiful nature. The tea will also be made with Mt. Yotei spring water and accompanied by a set of self-made cookies (or possibly the Pow Bars you got as a souvenir); it will make the perfect afternoon teatime.

Tour end: Moving back to Sapporo via shuttle bus.
