Niseko Resort Information

Ever keen to pioneer new ski destinations, we are pleased to offer Hokkaido, Japan's northerly island which has some of the best powder snow in the world.

Combine phenomenal snow conditions with high hotel standards, renowned Japanese efficiency, service, excellent lift and transport systems, and the whole experience becomes worth the long flight.

The Niseko mountain has four ski areas and three villages, Annupuri, Higashiyama and Grand Hirafu which are all connected at the base with a free shuttle bus.

Massive quantities of snow fall regularly, so don’t worry about snow shortages!

Apres Ski in Niseko

There are numerous bars and restaurants at the base of the mountains.

Activities in Niseko

Apart from the skiing, there’s much to sample that’s so very different from any other winter holiday in Europe or the Rockies.

Things to do include: Husky dog sledging, snowmobiling, skating, night skiing, bars, restaurants, ‘Dancing Waters’ fountain display, gift shops, Japanese crafts centre, Snow rafting, Snow tubing, Day trips to Sapporo, Saporro Ice Festival in February.
