Only 8 minutes drive from Myoko-Kogen IC on Joshinetsu Expressway,at the foot of Mt Myoko,The adjacent red-roofed “Akakura Kanko Hotel” is the landmark of this ski resort.

The slopes are located at an altitude of around 1500 meters and are equipped with a total of 10 courses for all levels from beginners to experts.(Beginner 40%, Intermediate 30%, Upper 30%)You can enjoy a long run of up to 4.5 km by taking the Sky Cable and lifts.It is also connected to the neighboring Akakura Onsen ski resort, so you can come and go if you purchase a common ticket for both ski resorts.

The most popular course is the Hotel B Course, which offers moderate slopes and slope changes.上For advanced skiers, we recommend the Champion B Course, which offers views from Lake Nojiri to the Sea of Japan.This is a full-fledged long course where official tournaments are held.In addition to this, the hotel beginner course along the parking lot is perfect for beginners and families.This is a ski resort where both adults and children can enjoy skiing to the fullest.

For children who have not yet made their debut on the slopes, please use the “Chibiko Hiroba,” which is surrounded by a net for safety.Visitors can enjoy making snowmen and sledding.
