Although the slopes are compact, the rich terrain makes for a course layout that will keep you busy (30% beginner, 40% intermediate, and 30% advanced).
The slopes are mainly medium to steep and offer thrilling skiing.

The “Ginou Course” for advanced skiers is not pressure snowed at all so that they can enjoy the best slope and high-quality powder snow in the Myoko Mountains.
Also, in spring, a part of the course becomes a mogul course-like burn, which is a must for advanced skiers.

The deep powder snow is popular, and there are a variety of activities for those who want to enjoy the snowy mountains to the fullest, including a half pipe for snowboards and a jump platform.
In addition to this, powder board test rides are also offered.
Experience the power of a powder board in a heavy snowfall area.

After working up a sweat, you can take a day trip to Seki Onsen or Tsubame Onsen, both of which are 100% spring-fed.
This ski resort is recommended for those who want to enjoy both skiing and hot springs.
