Tateyama Kurobe Snow Road
Now this is deep snow!
The Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route is a spectacular route through the Northern Japan Alps
As many of you know, Japan is a country of contrasts in every aspect in this case the contrast of Okinawa where we can find white sandy beaches and the Japanese Alps about 3000 meters high in these mountains of Toyama Prefecture is the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route that connects the city of Toyama with the city of Omachi.
The section of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route linking the Tateyama station and Ogizawa only open from mid April to November, the reason for this hiatus is wintry snow, snow on this section reaches a thickness of 20 meters the most amazed of all is that in mid-April, much of the snow still lingers, so you have to make real corridors of ice to get through that stretch.
