FURANO - Gateway to the hidden Hokkaido
                                                                                                        

2 linked ski resorts over one mountain which offer an abundance of fast groomers and fantastic offpiste skiing.


Kitanomine has a ski in, ski out hotel, several chairlifts and a tram, Furano is just above the town and has chairlifts and a long gondola. between the two mountains there are fast groomers, excellent side piste and some hair raising off piste. 

​Furano accommodation ranges from the ski in, ski out Prince hotel in Kitanomine to comfortable Japanese hotels, B&b’s and self contained apartments in Furano.

The best thing about Furano is that it is an excellent base to access many of the smaller interior resorts of Hokkaido, including Asahikawa, Kurodake and Kamui Ski Links.

Located in central Hokkaido the snow is guaranteed to be incredible!
