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!

An excellent onsen experience (indoor and outdoor). I travelled during COVID, so no crowds at all. I appreciated the very spacious dressing rooms, shower area and baths. The outdoor bath was especially nice, with the perfect temperature for a snowy day in Karuizawa.
