Leave Time to Check Delivered Gear Before Your Hike

Please note that the package is shipped to arrive the day before your stay. If you plan to receive the package at your accommodation, please confirm the delivery availability and the reservation name in advance. It is recommended to allow time to check the fit of the shoes, clothing sizes, and contents, rather than starting immediately upon arrival.

Store pickup is a process where you pick up items at the selected store at the reserved time and return them to the same store. Please plan your hiking schedule separately from your equipment pickup, and check the reservation guide for how to contact us if assigned items or sizes do not fit.
