Kagura Ski Resort (Mitsumata, Tashiro)

Kagura Ski Resort presents a significant vertical drop and generous annual snowfall, offering a vast expanse for powder seekers. Its character leans toward those who appreciate deep snow and varied Japanese terrain, favoring exploration over manicured boulevards.

For the intrepid traveler, Kagura lies but a short drive from a cluster of Niigata’s finest. One might readily pair it with Yuzawa Kogen or the readily accessible Gala Yuzawa, transforming a brief excursion into a multi-stop foray through Japan's celebrated snow country. The drives between offer scenic glimpses of the true Japan.

As for access, note well that Kagura Ski Resort currently holds no affiliation with the common ski passes found in our keeping. Plan accordingly, for direct purchase is the path to its prodigious powder.
