Great place to go snowboarding and very popular with the locals. This trip was about a 3 hour drive from Sasebo but definitely worth the wait. The admission was about $43 and you’re given an access pass to get through the gates to the slopes and to ride the ski lifts. The restrooms are large and warm, there’s also a shop for gear and souvenirs, not to mention they serve food as well! The gear and board I had was rented via a separate company. The slopes were amazing and not too crowded once on the hills, there’s even a few jumps where you can do tricks if you’re that advanced. Falling does hurt despite it being snow and can cause injuries so if it’s your first time be sure to wear a helmet. There are 3 types of hills that just go higher and higher, 2 of the slopes were available at the time and it gets very steep. I can’t wait to go again with friends, this trip was truly enjoyable and great for family and friends.

We went in end feb and it was a rainy day, so the ski resort was pretty empty. There were lots of parking spaces available. Rental of outfit and ski equipments were very straight-forward. Note: you will need to provide a passport for rental. Rentals were as follows: full ski gear 5000 yen, outfit 3000 yen, beanie 500 yen, gloves 500 yen, googles 1500 yen. After picking up the ski boots, you will change in the locker room before heading to an outdoor area to pick up the ski gear (for snowboard gear it is indoors) . 200 yen is required for lockers so its good to keep some loose change. Overall the snow here is not the best like you would get in other parts of japan but it is ok for some fun.

Update: Returned on a Saturday. Highly recommend avoiding weekends if possible. There was a large cue for ski lifts, and it was nearly impossible to do a run safely.There were many tour buses. There was nowhere to sit and eat. The lift tickets are priced higher. After about 2 hours, we decided to leave disappointed. After leaving Niseko and Hakuba, we were not sure what to expect from our Kyushu ski resort but I have to say we all had a BLAST. All the staff was friendly and helpful. The runs were well maintained and even had jumps/ mini park area. We will definitely be returning.

A relatively small ski resort but it's fun enough! Traveling to Kyushu in March, you cannot expect more from this ski resort. Snow quality is good for skiing, and it's also not too crowded, although the weather is a bit too hot already (~15-20 degrees in daytime). The ski lesson is definitely worth taking, not only because the instructor can teach you the basics, but because the quality of the video he'll take for you!
