Shiga Kogen Yakebitaiyama Ski Resort
Shiga Kogen Yakebitaiyama Ski Resort is located in Yamanouchi, Shimotakai District, Nagano Prefecture. Known as a venue for the 1998 Winter Olympics, the resort offers 20 courses and dry, light snow known as “Platinum Powder.”
If you come to Shiga Kogen, I highly recommend spending at least one day skiing at Yakebitaiyama. The runs are long, the snow quality is good, and the forest scenery is beautiful. However, there are more intermediate and advanced runs, so complete beginners may feel there aren't as many options, but experienced skiers can have a great time here!
