Yamagata Zao Onsen Ski Resort

Reviewed By MontyPuppy - Perth, Australia

If you love Nosawa Onsen but hate the crowds, try something a little further away. Zao Onsen in the Yamagata Prefecture has 12m snow seasons, lovely powder, loads of lifts and fun local foods to try plus the very amazing and unique ‘snow monsters’. (Eerie snow and wind blasted trees near the peak of the mountain). If you enjoy first tracks and make early starts avoiding the Zao ropeway that takes tourists up to the monsters, you’ll have a fabulous time. And then there is the private and public town onsens and apres skiing. Sensational.

Donden-daira Snow Park

A huge snow slide, a snowmobile ride experience, and a banana boat to experience on the sea will turn into a thrilling play tool if you come here. There are also other popular track-out and snowshoe experiences. Play with snow in a snow park full of fun all day. If your body gets cold, you can play in the kids space in the break room, so small children are OK.
