In winter, skiers and snowboarders enjoy scenic drives up to the many ski areas and resorts around our area, ranging from beginner ski to advanced Olympic size competition zones. The white snow capped mountains, frozen lakes, tranquillity and serenity helps you feel calm and peaceful. we offer ski lessons by certified ski instructor with additional costs.

Also, a relaxing bath in the natural hot springs sooths and relaxes the tension in your body, making you forget all the troubles and stress in your life.

In the spring time, many Japanese tourists come to the mountains to see the nature, flowers, and lakes and breathe the fresh air. The famous Sakura blossoms are also a popular attraction here.
