No snow yet. Not open yet for 2026/27. We have not yet found an official opening date. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear once snow is on the ground or forecast.
A weather-model figure, worked out the same way for every ski area, and lower than what actually falls. Use it to compare ski areas, not against the resort’s own totals. How we measure →
Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.
Compact and gentle, the hill is broad and easy from top to bottom, and a short slope is set aside for absolute beginners taking their first turns. The grounds also hold a hot spring, a lodge and bungalows that can be used for winter camping. Sources: outdoor-in-motai.com, kankou-gifu.jp (sources read 13 Oct 2026; an AI draft the site operator has not yet checked)
Modelled from weather data the same way at all 3,069 ski areas we cover. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
The tick marks the median across every Japanese ski area we measure. All four bars run the same way — longer is better.
The quality score leaves out how much snow falls (it uses temperature, frequency, rain and wind).
Within 50 km in a straight line. Ski areas in the same weather-model cell (about 30 km across) get the same figure.

The most snow falls in January. March brings 40% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Japan (52%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 18 cm, less than the median of 46 cm.
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 132 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2015/16 with 46 cm; the biggest was 2024/25 with 232 cm (5.0 times as much).
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.

We worked out snow depth at 14 Japanese hot spring towns over the last three winters from weather-model data: when it arrives, when it goes, and how many days it is actually deep.
