Aspirations Can Transform Awareness
The ones who influence children the most Are the impressive figures of their senior peers.
The purpose of this camp is to create a catalyst for children to become serious. By naturally feeling the radiance emitted by the camp leaders and thinking, “I want to be like that too,” children can significantly alter their awareness after participating in the camp.
It is not about programs taught by adults; rather, it is about creating an environment where middle school students can learn by observing their peers of similar age. This is the true role of adults.
Camp Content
Our program is packed with activities aimed at maximizing your child’s potential, including leadership training for taking on the world and snow mountain route-finding workshops to enhance problem-solving skills.
Diverse Camp Leaders
Our camp leaders come from various countries, with international students from around the world serving as instructors.

Changes After Camp
We received feedback from parents about the changes they observed in their children after participating in the camp.
Proactivity
-
The camp leaders are two years older, but they all have their own opinions, and I think it's amazing. Their initiative and proactive attitude are truly impressive.
Self-discipline
-
The camp leaders are friendly, and everyone seems to be having fun no matter what they do. Their ability to switch between being 'on' and 'off' appropriately is impressive.
Expressiveness
-
I learned the importance of expressing my own opinions clearly. I realized how challenging it can be to prioritize leadership and speak up for oneself.
Safely Enjoying Nature
Professional Mountain Guides Ensure Safety
Outdoor programs will be conducted in designated areas within a prefectural park where safety is guaranteed. To ensure safety without a doubt, multiple qualified guides belonging to the Japan Mountain Guides Association will oversee safety management.
Fun Memories Are Lifelong Memories
At Snow Mountain International Camp, adults don’t take the stage.
High school camp leaders genuinely interact with middle school students, and the camp is created by the children themselves.
Because it’s genuine, we often witness tearful goodbyes, scenes that happen every year.
