This resort covers three mountains and offers 37 courses - the most in Hokkaido - an astounding 42km of runs, and a great view of the Shikotsu-Toya National Park. This is a resort that lets you experience all the wonderful activities Hokkaido has to offer. For the kids, there are ski school lessons and a snow playground, great for their skiing debut.
