Japan
Japan means three things – Powder, powder and powder! Venture East when seeking the fluffy white stuff and you will be rewarded with amazing conditions, exotic location and heaps of culture.
Hakuba
Peaks towering over 3000m, averaging 13m of powder and made up of 11 ski resorts over 2,372 acres of world-class terrain, Hakuba offers plenty of opportunities to sample the famous Japow!
Niseko
For those who love powder, Niseko, Japan, is the number one pick for a ski holiday because it seems to constantly snow, and the deep, deep powder is way too enticing. Niseko, the snow factory, is a big powder playground and the ideal place for ski instructor courses in Japan.
Nozowa Onsen
Skiing was introduced to Nozawa Onsen in 1912 by an Austrian, and is considered to be the birthplace of skiing in Japan.
Nozawa Onsen is one of the most popular ski resorts in Japan for international travellers due to its diversity of terrain, abundance of snow, and lovely traditional village – famous for the abundance of hot springs that were discovered in the 8th century.
Rusutsu
Located on the island of Hokkaido, Rusutsu is made up of three mountains interconnected by gondolas. It is heaven for powder lovers, receiving over 14 meters of snow annually. If you like deep, light-powder snow, Rusutsu could be the perfect destination.
