JAPAN'S #1 RESORT

Experience winter in one of the world's most snowiest ski resorts, enhanced only by immersive culture and cuisine.

Resort Overview

The snow resort of Niseko is without doubt Japan’s premier ski destination. As the proud recipient of international awards, Niseko stands as a considerable competitor on the global stage. Nestled in the mountains two hours drive east of Sapporo on the island of Hokkaido, the resort experiences an average of 15 metres of snowfall reliably each season.

Niseko has much more to distinguish itself than the world-renowned trademark of incredible levels of snowfall. The resort offers a comprehensive list of advantages to ensure it’s the perfect environment in which to be a seasonaire and become an instructor.
