Up until the beginning of the 1998 Winter Olympics, many people were unaware that Japan has an abundance of skiable terrain and an active ski culture. Japan’s mountains receive snowfalls of some of the lightest, driest powder on earth. From central Hokkaido right down through to the southern alps of Honshu, Japan offers a ski experience unlike any other in the world. Service and hospitality in Japan is second to none. A genuine and heart-warming hospitality awaits you.
The Alpine World office in Niseko (branded Hokkaido Travel) offers full in-resort service. Our friendly bilingual staff are happy to assist with local tips, restaurant bookings, day trips and tours (both ski and non-ski) and other activities.
