I love the nature and culture of Hokkaido.
I will provide you with discoveries and impressions that you cannot get on a normal trip. I will guide you to the true local spots and nature of Hokkaido that are not listed in guidebooks.

Hello, I’m Yuka Obitsu.
I live in Furano, which is the center of Hokkaido.(Good access to all over Hokkaido!!)
I was born in Saitama prefeture which is near Tokyo,and raised up in the nature.
My parents love mountain hiking, they brought me many mountains since I was 3 years old.
That’s the my source to be a hiking guide in Hokkaido.
And I worked in New Zealand for 2 years 2018 to 2020 as a stargazing and nature guide in Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park.
During Covid-19 period, I come back to Japan and move to Hokkaido.
Because I know Hokkaido has abundant nature and very unique history and culture. All things were quite new and fresh for me, it was so attractive.
I decided being a guide in Hokkaido.
In 2023, I started my company, Guide Office Tail Wind.
Please check my website up, and let’s go to enjoy the great nature in Hokkaido.
Thank you.

I am from Hokkaido, Japan. I have been guiding since 2000 throughout Hokkaido,mainly in Daisetsuzan National Park. In 2001, I launched Daisetsuzan Nature School, which provides children’s camps, nature tours and national park management, aiming to foster sustainable community development under the theme of “wise use”. In 2018, we introduced Adventure Hokkaido, offering cycling and hiking tours across Hokkaido in English. With a background in environment conservation from a university in NZ and a current role on the board of the Asian Ecotourism Network, I offera comprehensive guiding perspective.

This will be my 24th season as a river guide in Tokachi, Hokkaido. Rafting and river kayaking are my specialties, and I operate in the upper reaches of the Tokachi River from spring to fall during the summer months. I run TAC Tokachi Adventure Club with a mission to share the charm of Tokachi with the world.
