The slopes here are very much the main attraction and these are served by a good network of fast lifts.

All of the terrain is wooded, providing excellent shelter in bad weather – which is very useful as the resort boasts an impressive 10m of snowfall a year on average. As with many Japanese resorts, off piste skiing is limited, but many runs are left un-groomed after fresh snowfall and tree-skiing is allowed at the top of the mountain – so head here as soon as possible after a fresh dump of powder.

The resort itself is also a major attraction thanks to its renowned hot springs, which were discovered in the 8th Century. With traditional ryokan inns and narrow cobbled streets, this resort really gives you an authentic Japanese skiing experience, a contrast from a much larger resorts such as Niseko.

Getting here is easy from the city of Nagano, which is only a couple of hours from Tokyo via bullet train.

Snow Overview

Japan

Updated 10/03

Cooler conditions return across both main Japanese Islands through this week and into the weekend, albeit things will remain mostly dry throughout.

Honshu will see cold night time temperatures will rise during the day and turn mild into the weekend. A few flurries of snowfall will come throughout this period but won’t be enough to register on a snow stake. Similarly, cool temperatures dominate on Hokkaido, but remain cold throughout the weekend. Snow will fall on Thursday bringing a useful 5cm to areas to keep things fresh ahead of what looks like more dry weather =.
