Resort guide

This lesson covers the resorts below — pick yours in the booking form above.

Tomamu

Hoshino Resorts Tomamu has 29 runs on a gondola and 5 chairlifts, about 21.5 km of terrain with 585 m of vertical, and around 7.5 m of snow a year. Known for being family- and beginner-friendly, with dining and shops right at the base of the slopes.

Furano

Furano has two zones, Furano and Kitanomine, with 23 runs on 11 lifts, summit 1,209 m and 964 m of vertical; the longest run is 4 km. It has hosted FIS Alpine and Snowboarding World Cup events.

Appi Kogen

Appi Kogen, in Iwate Prefecture, spans two peaks (Mt Maemori and Mt Nishimori) with 21 trails totalling 45.1 km on 16 lifts, summit 1,328 m and 828 m of vertical. Annual snowfall is around 12 m; the longest run is 5.5 km, and its average run length is among the longest in Japan.

Karuizawa

Karuizawa Prince Hotel Ski Resort sits next to the Karuizawa resort town, with gentle, compact terrain. It's one of the easiest resorts to reach from Tokyo (direct Shinkansen), and suits beginners and families well.

Naeba

Naeba, run by Prince Hotels, has 16 trails on 23 lifts, summit 1,789 m and 889 m of vertical. Its Dragondola links across to the Tashiro, Mitsumata and Kagura ski areas — and in summer the same slopes host the Fuji Rock Festival.

Iwappara

Iwappara is close to Echigo-Yuzawa Shinkansen station, with compact, gentle terrain — an easy, convenient choice for beginners and families.

Six resorts at one price: Hoshino Tomamu and Furano in Hokkaido, plus APPI, Karuizawa, Naeba and Iwappara in Honshu. Choose your resort when you book and a Plume Ridge consultant arranges a partner ski school coach.
