Embark on a fantastic journey to AIZU in Japan's chic Tohoku region!

This winter, Nekoma Mountain, one of the largest ski resorts in Japan, will open by connecting two existing ski resorts by lifts.

Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of nature and carve through the powdery slopes of Nekoma Mountain for an exhilarating winter experience.

AIZU isn't just a playground for snow enthusiasts – unwind in the comforting embrace of hot springs and delve into the rich traditions that give Japan its unique charm.

Beyond the snowy landscapes, indulge your taste buds in the local culinary scene that makes AIZU a gastronomic delight. Witness the winter magic unfold at Nekoma Mountain, seamlessly connecting ski resorts for a seamless adventure.

But why confine yourself to just snow resorts? AIZU has more to offer – from soothing hot springs to embracing tradition and savoring the diverse local cuisine. AIZU beckons, so why not answer the call of the snow resorts this winter? ❄️🏔️🎿✨
