Itinerary
Day 2-4 Niseko
Hokkaido receives more snow than anywhere else in Japan. As the northern-most island it has a sub-Arctic climate, Hokkaido experiences consistent storm fronts that travel from the Siberian desert across the Sea of Japan to dump some of the lightest, driest powder snow found anywhere in the world.Our time will be spent at the resort of Niseko. Niseko is regarded as one of Japan’s top 5 resorts. Equipped with an efficient lift system, mostly gondolas and covered chairlifts so even on the most extreme blizzard days, you can ride in comfort. Bad weather does not mean bad visibility in Niseko, as the resort has an abundance of tree runs and being low in altitude it rarely experiences true whiteout conditions that are often found in North American or European resorts of higher altitude.After a lesson on the morning of day 3, we will have the rest of the day and day 4 to enjoy the magnificent snow.Day 5 Otaru
Today we'll take a day excursion up to Otaru, 40km northwest of Sapporo. A small canal town, Otaru does not have the museums and attractions of the big cities, but it does have the best sushi in Japan and several sake breweries! Otaru is the perfect town to relax and recover after a few days on the slopes.Day 6 Niseko
Today we have another full day on the slopes.Day 7 Sapporo
Today we'll squeeze in as many runs as possible before our afternoon 2 hour drive back to Sapporo. We have our last night's dinner, sample the famous Sapporo nightlife, and then say our goodbyes.Day 8 Depart Sapporro
The trip ends on day 8, there are no planned activities. Depart at any time.Trip Details
