Myoko Kogen, with its impressive 14 meters of snow each season, stands out as an uncrowded paradise for skiers, especially those seeking off-piste adventures. Comprising three distinct resorts—Myoko Akakura, Myoko Suginohara, and Ikenotaira—this area is renowned for some of the best tree skiing on Honshu island. It also boasts Japan's longest ski run, famously known as 'The Wall'.

Despite these challenges for the seasoned skier, Myoko Kogen is also very accommodating to beginners and families, offering a variety of gentler slopes to suit all skill levels. Beyond the slopes, Myoko Kogen provides a rich cultural experience. At the mountain's base lies a village steeped in traditional Japanese heritage. Here, visitors can relax in numerous onsens (hot springs) scattered throughout the village, offering a perfect way to unwind after a day on the slopes. The village also features cozy izakayas (Japanese pubs), where you can enjoy a lively atmosphere with a beer or sake après-ski. For those looking to combine thrilling off-piste skiing with an authentic cultural experience, Myoko Kogen is an unbeatable destination.
