The Myoko Difference

The Myoko Difference

So what makes Myoko Kogen such a great place and sets it apart from other snow holiday locations around the world?

  1. sdfExcellent snowfalls (average of 13m per season). Myoko receives one of the highest annual snowfalls on Japan's main island – Honshu.
  2. More sunny days compared to many other snow resorts.
  3. More agreeable temperatures compared to many other ski resorts. Temperatures typically range from 0°c to -5°c.
  4. Ease of access. The trains from Narita (Tokyo) airport to Myoko link up well. Total travel time to Myoko from Narita is around 3.5 hours, making it one of Japan's most accessible resorts.
  5. sdfJapanese Culture. While being one of Japan's most famous ski resorts, Myoko is not overly commercialized, and guests will enjoy a real Japanese experience. There is enough English signage to feel comfortable, but a lack of large numbers of international guests helps you feel immersed in the culture.
  6. Amount of terrain to explore. With two interlinked resorts and another 5 accessible by a short shuttle-bus ride, Myoko Kogen has enough terrain to keep you happy for weeks.
  7. sdfOther local attractions include the Snow Monkey Onsen, Zenkoji Temple in Nagano city, and all the wondrous sights and sounds of Tokyo.
  8. Families can enjoy the excellent variety of wide beginner, intermediate and advanced terrain via an efficient lift system. Child care services (from 6 months old), our kids' ski school programs and great weather all combine to make Myoko an ideal choice for families.

See you in Myoko!
