Best Ski Resort in Asia: Niseko - Overall Rating 4.50/5
Niseko's legendary powder draws riders from across the globe, and our users can't stop raving about the dry, fluffy snow. One Snomad community member who's an expert skier described it as "genuinely insane" powder, whilst another intermediate rider noted the consistently fresh snowfall that keeps coming. The tree runs through bamboo are a particular highlight according to advanced boarders, offering unique terrain you won't find elsewhere. Several users mention the excellent food scene both on and off the mountain, with authentic Japanese cuisine adding to the experience. The covered, heated lifts are a nice touch too.
