Myoko Suginohara Ski Resort
Myoko Suginohara Ski Resort is located on the slopes of Mt. Myoko in Myoko City, Niigata Prefecture. Just a 10-minute drive from the nearest station, Myokokogen Station, the resort attracts many skiers each year. About 80% of its 16 courses are designed for beginner and intermediate skiers, making it an accessible choice for first-timers.
My first time at Suginohara, and what impressed me most wasn't the slopes, but the view from the top. Lake Nojiri lies right below, with the mountains of northern Shinano stretching across the background. On a perfectly clear day, it really makes you feel glad you came.
