New Yukitouro 2027
Introduction
“Yukitouro,” which featured countless handmade snow candles, ended its 15-year history as a winter tradition in February 2026, thanks to the support and attendance of so many guests.
Starting in January 2027, although it will no longer feature snow candles, we are planning new production and lighting concepts to make the event even more enjoyable.
We would like to announce the event dates and hours for “New Yukitouro 2027” in advance. Please look forward to new light displays unique to a deep-snow hot spring town.
We hope you will plan a trip to Jozankei this winter. All of us look forward to welcoming you.
