This year, Nagaoka City in Niigata Prefecture has been blessed with abundant snow. Similarly, Echigo-Yuzawa has also received plenty of snow, making it the perfect time for skiing and other winter sports.
From Echigo-Yuzawa to Nagaoka, it's just two stations on the Joetsu Shinkansen Super Express. The journey takes about 20 minutes. The Japan Rail Pass is convenient for this trip.
Nagaoka offers delicious dining spots and memorial facilities like the Isoroku Yamamoto Memorial Museum. We encourage you to extend your trip and visit.
