Much recommended. I've skied lots, all over - and done plenty of group tours in Europe, American and Japan - and this was exactly as promised/hoped. Good value, super organisation/knowledge, fantastic food in decent hotels, and friendly staff/guides. Every group will have differing skills on the mountain, people who can be a bit late getting their boots on etc, but they managed this incredibly well and always with good humour. The group never felt too large, the pace on the hill was quick but never silly, and we were able to have a joke/get to know the guides, while also being reassured they were taking all the avy/safety stuff seriously. I'd say impossible to beat on mainland Japan. We will return and re-book! Bravo Marco and crew!

Mt Myoko is a much quieter ski area than nearby Hukuba. The area is better catered for families, especially where some are yet to achieve the skill needed to ski like a pro. Of the several resorts on the mountain, Suginohara excels. The wide runs offer many Green and Red (Blue elsewhere) run options. And, for families, kids under 14 ski free. Unlike other resorts nearby, nearly all the lifts are of the newer (fast) style. The only 'downer' is that the (old) access lift often opns after the rest have opened. This means that to enjoy 1st tracks, one must drive a car to the 'base' area. This access lift should open at least 15 minutes (better 30 minutes) before the Gondola. There are plenty of good food options. So, unless you are a black level skier, you will have lots of fun.

Myōkōkōgen is famed for it's 9 local ski resort areas. The first of these, Akakura, was founded in the 1930s, making it one of the oldest established ski areas in the world. It is also a traditional mountain retreat of Japan's imperial family. Myōkō Kōgen is also well known for its many local onsen (hot springs) emanating from the Jigoku-dani valley between Mt. Myōkō and Mt. Mae The area is dominated by 'Hokushingogaku' - a spectacular series of five mountains (Madarao, Myōkō, Kurohime, Togakushi and Iizuna) that make up the border of Nagano and Niigata prefectures.
Many long green (beginner) runs to learn to ski (I was an absolute beginner at the start of this week). Amazing scenery too!

Ski’d here three days, completely different conditions each day. Bit of slush, but if ice, but of fresh - it was the start of the season. Lapped the top lifts mostly as better snow. Good food options but very busy at lunch time. Terrain was great for beginner and intermediate but lacking for advanced (that might change when the snow base gets deeper and opens up more terrain between pistes). We preferred Kanko to Onsen - which was great also as it’s the closer of the two to our accommodation ‘Myoko mountain lodge’ Dawn skiing on NYD with free sake and hot tea was the highlight.

We found lots of powder to play in at Akakura Onsen. It was less busy on big days than Kanko so we had more powder to ourselves. A great place for beginners too.
