Enjoy the finest powder snow while taking in the breathtaking views of the Northern Shinano Five Peaks and Lake Nojiri. With 5 lifts and 19 courses catering to all skill levels (30% beginner, 40% intermediate, 30% advanced), there’s something for everyone.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

The slopes are meticulously groomed and maintained in excellent condition. Each course features distinct layouts: some offer a leisurely glide, others concentrate on features, and still others let you pick up speed.<\/p>\r\n

Rental equipment and lesson schools are well-equipped, allowing everyone from beginners to advanced skiers and snowboarders to enjoy the slopes. The ski area connects to the adjacent Madarao Kogen Ski Resort, and using a Mount Pass (joint lift ticket) expands your skiing area even further.<\/p>\r\n
