Shizukuishi Ski Resort offers an exciting skiing experience for everyone. The 4,500-m downhill trail with a maximum slope of 36 degrees was the site of the 1993 World Alpine Ski Championships and is definitely for advanced skiers. There are, of course, other trails for skiers of all levels, such as the Grand Slalom Course for advanced skiers and the Crystal Course for beginners. There are 6 lifts, including a ropeway and a gondola. On weekends you can also enjoy night-time skiing. Skiing and snowboarding lessons approved by the Ski Association of Japan are available as well.
