Beskrivning

Pickup at your Kanazawa hotel. Drive the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road past big waterfalls and visit the thatched farmhouses of Shirakawa-go.
We pick you up at your hotel in Kanazawa at 8:00. We drive about 1 hour 15 minutes into the Hakusan mountains, then cross them on the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road, a seasonal mountain road. We go down into Shirakawa-go, the famous village of gassho-style farmhouses.

In the morning we enter the White Road. We stop at Fukube Otaki, an 86-metre waterfall right next to the road. Next we walk the short path to Ubagataki viewpoint, a wide fall of thin white lines. The road climbs through beech forest to the Sanpo-iwadake viewpoint over the mountains.

Around 12:00 we arrive in Shirakawa-go. We start at the Shiroyama viewpoint above the village for the classic photo.

You have lunch in the village. Hida beef and soba are local. Halal is not guaranteed.

In the afternoon you walk the village. You visit Wada House, the largest gassho farmhouse, and see how families lived under the steep thatched roofs. Your entry ticket is included.

We return to Kanazawa by the expressway and arrive at about 17:00.

Your plan is customizable: you can spend longer at the waterfalls, skip the viewpoint, or swap Wada House for Kanda House or Nagase House. All changes stay on the White Road and in Shirakawa-go and within the tour time.

This is a private tour. Only your group.

If the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road is closed on your date, your driver-guide takes you to a similar place nearby instead. The tour price does not change. If you prefer, we can instead go to Shirakawa-go by the expressway and add the Gokayama villages.

  • Drive the Hakusan White Road through beech forest
