Description

Like all ski resorts in Hakkaido, Japan, the powder in the Kiroro ski resort is tremendous. However, unlike many of those resorts, the Kiroro resort is more of a destination resort with many upscale facilities. So if you are looking for that luxurious resort feeling on your skiing trip, then this spot will definitely fit your needs.

Kiroro is one of the snowiest spots in the region. Experience the thrill of skiing through untouched virgin forests, with top-quality snow and stunning, panoramic views. Just 50 km from Niseko, it’s only about an hour’s drive to this winter paradise!

Kiroro Resort, with its incredible slopes, exciting experience, and luxurious atmosphere, is the perfect destination for a skiing adventure. If you'd like to experience it firsthand, simply reach out to me!

What people are saying about Japan

Jun is a responsible and reliable guide. He is also knowledgeable on the local flora and fauna and managed to show us quite a few interesting alpine flowers, birds and animals. He is kind and helpful and converses well in English. I will not hesitate to recommend him to any anyone needing an English speaking guide in Japan.

As for Kikuo-san, we both really liked her.  She is very pleasant.  A bit quiet spoken in a good way.  She obviously knows the Akan region very well, as she lives inside the national park.  She has very responsible and well organised.  I would have her guide us again, when we go back to the area.

Just back from Hakuba –Japan and I’m so pleased to confirm we got such a great experience with Iwao who has provided a service above all expectations. Indeed assisting a family confronted to a new environment requires a certain level of patience and attention and all the family appreciated his sense of responsibilities and seriousness which allowed us to really enjoy this region by experiencing touring, hicking and of course skiing in immaculate powder. Iwao was very discreet but always acted to ensure we could take the best of all Hakuba mountains could offer to us during these 5 days.This experience will for sure remain in all our minds for long and this will be mainly thanks to Iwao ! Best, Arnaud
