TOTONOU LITE is not just an event – it’s an invitation to reconnect with yourself and with nature.
Inspired by the Japanese concept of “totonou” — finding balance between body and mind — this program combines outdoor activities with moments of relaxation.
From soaking in a hot spring and practicing yoga, to cycling through the forest, your time in Hakuba’s stunning nature will leave you refreshed and full of new energy.
TOTONOU GIRLS STAY LITE
The setting is Hakuba Bears Lodge Echoland, nestled in nature.
This pet-friendly lodge sits among beautiful trails, rivers, and cozy cafés.
Here, we offer warm connections and moments of relaxation you won’t find anywhere else.

TOTONOU ACTIVITIES
TOTONOU Girls Stay offers nature-based activities that balance body and mind.
No experience needed—everything is arranged for beginners to join with confidence.

Yoga
Morning yoga before breakfast. Wake your body with stretch and breathwork and settle your mind for a calm, fresh start to the day.

SUP (Stand-Up Paddleboard)
Day 2 features a refreshing SUP session at Lake Aoki. No experience required—enjoy a playful reset on the water while an experienced instructor supports you throughout.

FOREST CYCLING
We guide you to one of two ride options based on your level:
-
Forest & City Bike (beginner–)
A relaxed ride through forest paths and Hakuba’s townscape—an easy, feel-good way to discover Hakuba by bike. Perfect for first-timers.
Final program choice prioritizes safety and is decided from your pre-event questionnaire and a day-of skills check (plus weather and trail conditions). On either ride, we’ll carefully review the fundamentals (position / braking / cornering) and support you so you can ride with a smile.
