Best Ski Resort for Snowboarders in Japan: Niseko - Snowboarders Rating
Niseko is absolute heaven for snowboarders, with our users raving about the legendary powder that keeps dumping day after day. Sebastian, an expert rider who spent a whole season there, says the tree runs are second to none. The terrain's more mellow than some hardcore riders might prefer, but with that deep, dry Japanese snow, you'll still be grinning like mad. Francois, also an expert boarder, loved exploring the mountain despite finding good food at reasonable prices a bit tricky. Those covered, heated lifts are a proper bonus when it's dumping outside.
