Ski Japan
Japan is a favourite for Kiwi skiers and snowboarders, thanks to its famously light, dry powder and reliable snowfall—averaging 10 to 15 metres each season. With over 500 resorts across the country, there's something for every level of skier, from wide, groomed runs to deep powder and off-piste tree skiing. But it’s not just about the snow—Japan blends world-class skiing with rich cultural experiences, from traditional hot springs and local cuisine to vibrant après-ski scenes and snow festivals.
Whether you're drawn to the powder havens of Hokkaido or the varied terrain of Honshu, Japan offers a unique and unforgettable winter escape. With options ranging from all-inclusive Club Med to family-friendly, ski-in, ski-out resorts in charming alpine villages, it’s easy to see why so many Kiwis are adding Japan to their snow holiday list.
