Powder Snow of Mount Okenashi for a Full Winter Day
Skiing and snowboarding take place on slopes known for some of Japan’s heaviest snowfall and fine powder snow, with the season continuing until around mid-May. The area features 14 courses ranging from beginner to advanced levels, including an impressive long ride of about 7 km that follows five connected courses. The surrounding natural landscape of Mount Okenashi forms the backdrop, and on clear days, expansive views spread across the area.

Snow Play Area with a Wide Range of Activities
"Snow Adventure (HIZUME)" offers 15 types of snow play equipment, including "sleds" and "snow tubing," creating an accessible setting for children and adults alike. The "Zipline," which glides across 170 meters in a single run, adds another highlight to the experience.

Resort Stay with a Full Range of Leisure Options
The resort grounds include a hotel, the hot spring “Hoshizora Onsen” sourced from about 1,750 meters underground, an indoor pool, and a "Playground" featuring bouldering, square trampolines, and a fun wall, as well as "SPA MANNA" with a sauna, indoor bath, and open-air bath, creating a setting for a full resort stay experience.
