2026 Japan Travel with Club Tourism: Gather at Shinkansen & Major JR stations, direct to Japan's natural wonders
TOKYO, Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Club Tourism is a travel company with an extensive portfolio of outdoor experience tours across Japan, including hiking, mountaineering, walking and cycling.
Boasting one of Japan's top-tier ranges of outdoor tours, from casual nature walks perfect for first-time outdoor enthusiasts to professional mountaineering expeditions, the company offers a diverse array of itineraries departing from locations all over Japan.
Japan's abundant natural beauty — encompassing mountains, valleys and highlands — lies just beyond its urban centers.
With ever-changing seasonal landscapes, crisp fresh air and serene forest trails, stepping foot on these lands in person, rather than just browsing guidebooks, deepens the richness of any Japan travel experience immeasurably.
In recent years, there has been a growing demand among international visitors to Japan for more than just urban sightseeing; travelers increasingly seek to immerse themselves in the country's natural landscapes.
However, many are hesitant to arrange such trips independently due to concerns like not knowing how to reach trailheads, the perceived hassle of preparing equipment, and lack of confidence in their physical stamina.
In response to these needs, Club Tourism has launched a dedicated 2026 Outdoor Tour Special Page, designed with a strong focus on accessibility and reliable support systems.
Key Highlights — Japan Inbound × Outdoor Experience
This Special Page features an extensive selection of tours, including not only professional mountaineering trips but also relaxed walking, hiking and cycling itineraries, suitable for first-time outdoor adventurers. Also, there are unique tours combining natural experiences with special events like summer festivals or firework displays.
- Station gathering & departure – eliminate travel worries: Meeting points are set at Shinkansen stops, major JR stations and stations with easy airport access. This removes the stress of carrying large luggage and the trouble of researching complex transit connections, enabling seamless access to Japan's natural landscapes.
