One of the widest slopes in the country! December 25 – March 26

Ikenodaira Onsen Alpine Bric Ski Resort is located at the foot of Mt. Myoko, one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains. The greatest feature is the top-class wide slopes that take advantage of the features of the magnificent foothills of Mt. Myoko. Everyone from small children to the elderly can enjoy safe and comfortable skiing.

The wide, gentle slopes are less prone to accidents while skiing, and most of the courses are beginner and intermediate courses （Beginner 40% , Intermediate 40% , Advanced 20%）. Another attraction is the 4-kilometer-long cruise, which takes you from the speedy mid-slopes to the gentle slopes in the woods that remain calm. The open atmosphere with a view of Lake Nojiri with Mt. Myoko in the background will surely refresh your body and mind.

Spread out at the bottom of the 1st Pair Lift boarding area is a safe and secure kids’ garden surrounded by netting on all sides. Moving belts are installed for easy transport to the top, and free sledding is open to the public.

This year, two stores, Kayaba Rental Shop and Alpenbrick Rental Shop, have reopened. Both have a wide selection of the latest model boards and boots, and you are sure to find your favorite clothing as well. Tools that are kept clean will not only feel good to use, but will also help you progress faster. There is no rental of tools that come in direct contact with the skin.

There are also numerous hot springs in the vicinity that will soothe your tired body.
