Ski slopes Niseko United – Annupuri/Grand Hirafu/Hanazono/Niseko Village
The ski resort of Niseko United has slopes of all difficulty levels and lots of space for powder runs. You can enjoy a beautiful view of the volcano Yōtei-zan throughout your day on the slopes. The ski resort is located in a powder snow area with abundant snowfall and freeriders can very often enjoy fresh “Japow” (Japan powder) here. In the upper area, the runs lead down over treeless slopes and in the lower part they lead down to the valley mainly through long, wide forest glades. Mogul slopes and gladed runs complete the offering. Niseko is also home to the largest night-skiing area in Japan.
