HI, I plan to drive a rental car from Sapporo to Jigokudani and hike in 1wk of January 1. Is the park and trail open for public in 1st wk of January? 2. Will there be to much snow to drive safe and hike? 3. Is there a public parking lot I can park then hike? Thanks for any comment. Cheers Thanks
答:
Don't drive. Parking is scarce plus the snow will be an issue. At least one of the major mountain roads are closed during winter months.
