Tambara Ski Park is a ski area in Gunma, Japan. The terrain spans roughly 1187–1587 m above sea level. The mapped ski area covers about 3.3 km². There is no settled snow at the moment — the season has not started here yet. Over the last three winters the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 449 cm of snowfall a season, 116th (tied) of the 3,112 ski areas we measure worldwide. The model runs well below what resorts report, so the ranking is the meaningful part rather than the centimetre figure. The nearest city of any size is Maebashi, about 43 km away. 1 official live camera is linked below. 133 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.
Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.

How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,112 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
The tick marks the median across the 395 Japanese ski areas. All four bars run the same way — longer is better.
The quality score deliberately excludes how much snow falls — it uses temperature, frequency, rain and wind. Snowing a lot and snowing well are different things.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.

|---|---|---|---|
| Kawaba Ski Resort | 3.2 km | 449 cm | 116 |
| Hodaigi Ski Resort | 5.4 km | 307 cm | 456 |
