Located in the heart of central Hokkaido, Furano is one of the best ski resorts in Japan when we’re talking about all-round characteristics. With an abundance of terrain options it boasts a vertical drop of almost 1,000 meters. The resort consists of two zones, Furano and Kitanomine, which combined have multiple terrain options including lift-accessed trees and side/backcountry off-piste areas.
While many Japanese resorts have been influenced by western culture, Furano still retains much of its authentic and traditional charm. For those “in the know”, Furano is all about powder snow (lots of it) and uncrowded slopes.
For anyone seeking something a little bit special, our instructor internship in Furano might just be the course for you. Both the training and employment package will be delivered by our resort partners, Furano International Snowsports School (FISS). They are the biggest international school in the area, with an established reputation and a number of highly qualified international examiners on the team.
