BUILD LIFE SKILLS AT CAMP
We change lives through adventure and pushing personal boundaries in Hokkaido's wild landscapes. Our expert staff guides you through this journey. Our courses help you cultivate new life skills by challenging existing limits. Embrace adventure in Hokkaido's wilderness to acquire invaluable lifelong lessons.
IWANAI
Our adventures encompass the Niseko-Shakotan National Park and greater South Western Hokkaido. Established in 1963, this national park is the collection of the Raiden Mountain Range, the Niseko Volcanic Group, Shakotan Peninsula and Marine Preserve. Our program utilizes these pristine landscapes on foot, by bike and sea kayak. The preservation and upkeep of the wilderness is the mark of every adventure.
CAMP FOOD
Preparing delicious and locally sourced meals in the wild will surely be the highlight your adventure. We create lasting memories with each meal. This approach to food preparation means that our older students will learn to depend on each other, as participants will take turns preparing meals.
No student will go hungry, as we are happy to cater our menu to meet your dietary needs.
WE ACTUALLY CAMP
Leaving behind the luxuries of home and sharing a tent with your new coursemates is a fundamental component of the Iwanai Onward experience. Using our ski lodge as a base camp, our program makes use of a nearby public campsite.
Follow our packing instructions closely as you learn what is essential for spending the night under the stars.
ENGLISH SANCTUARY
All of our courses are administered in English, providing non-native speakers with a secondary educational opportunity and native speakers with a language sanctuary. In pursuit of pushing boundaries, we accept students with all levels of English ability. Our staff are fully committed to supporting these students who have taken on this additional challenge.
GETTING TO CAMP
If you are unable to travel to our facilities by car, we provide a free pick-up and drop-off service from the Iwanai bus terminal. Sapporo New Chitose Airport is the nearest international airport. There are multiple trains per hour between Chitose Airport and Otaru Station along the JR Hakodate Main Line. From Otaru station, Chuo Bus runs a direct line to Iwanai nearly every hour.
