This ski resort is known for its spectacular views, where you can take in both Toyama Bay, said to be the most beautiful in the world, and the Tateyama Mountain Range, often compared to the European Alps.
The slopes are another highlight, with runs of up to 2,000 meters and gentler gradients than many other ski resorts. As a result, it is especially well suited to beginners and intermediate skiers, and people of all ages, from children to seniors, can enjoy skiing here.

Near the summit, there is also a snow park area with features used in Olympic events. At Ushidake Onsen Ski Resort, various items are set up on the snow and maintained as Ushidake Snow Park.

Families with children are very welcome, and preschool children under elementary school age can ride the lifts for free. There are also special rates for elementary and junior high school students, and every Saturday is “Kids’ Day,” when lift tickets for these age groups are discounted even further. On the second floor of the Ski Center, there is a kids’ space where children can take off their shoes and relax, along with a diaper-changing bed and a nursing room, so you can visit comfortably even with children.

    It doesn’t get too crowded, so it’s great for a relaxing trip. I’d love to go again next time!

    It doesn’t get too crowded, and even beginners won’t feel too pressured here. The runs aren’t too difficult, so it feels smooth and easy to ski, making it a great place to practice at your own pace.

    When you get tired, you can go straight to the hot springs, which is a huge plus. It’s so relaxing.

    The overall vibe feels very local and down-to-earth. It’s not one of those flashy big ski resorts, but if you want a laid-back ski trip and a little healing on the side, this place is pretty great.
