Naeba & Kagura Powder Weekend

Naeba & Kagura Powder Weekend

Skiing/boarding at Naeba & Kagura resorts. Peak season snow at two big resorts, fireworks show, night skiing, hot springs, after ski/board party, free ski & snowboard lessons and more!

Overview

Naeba Ski Resort offers a vast array of terrain, making it an ideal destination for skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels. With 24 courses and 11 lifts, the resort is perfect for beginners, intermediates, and advanced riders alike. The wide groomed slopes and steep runs provide plenty of excitement, while families and freestyle enthusiasts can enjoy terrain parks and dedicated family zones. The resort's high elevation ensures better snow quality compared to many other Yuzawa ski areas.

Naeba is linked to Kagura Ski Resort through the famous Dragondola, Japan's longest gondola. This impressive connection creates the expansive Mt. Naeba ski area, offering visitors access to two interconnected resorts. Kagura is large and varied resort featuring 23 different lifts and two ropeways. Famous for its early season powder snow, the expansive resort has courses to suit all levels of skiier/boarder including a super long 6000m run! The resort also has some of the most beautiful and panoramic views in the region due to the incredible mountain ranges nearby as well as the several lakes that are scattered throughout.

This weekend trip includes a spectacular fireworks show on the Saturday night right at the ski resort! After the fireworks, we will host a fun after ski/board party with good tunes, party games and drinks included! 

Our trip also features optional night skiing, which is included if you add the 2nd day's lift pass during booking. Naeba has one of the best night skiing courses around, with loads of fun to be had under the lights. Naeba also features several hot springs to soak in throughout the trip.

As always, the trip also includes free ski/snowboard lessons, so its ideal for beginners. Even if you are an experienced skiier or snowboarder, why not switch it up and try something new? Looking forward to the trip!
