Naeba Powder Weekend

Overview

The Mt. Naeba Area is made up of five large resorts and with over 30 ski lifts and three gondolas you can easily spend a week here and still not explore the whole area. Mount Naeba offers a huge variety of different runs and courses, with excellent snow conditions throughout the winter season making it an ideal destination for skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels. With 24 courses and 11 lifts, the resort is perfect for beginners, intermediates, and advanced riders alike. The wide groomed slopes and steep runs provide plenty of excitement, while families and freestyle enthusiasts can enjoy terrain parks and dedicated family zones. The resort's high elevation ensures better snow quality compared to many other Yuzawa ski areas. Naeba is linked to Kagura Ski Resort through the famous Dragondola, Japan's longest gondola. This impressive connection creates the expansive Mt. Naeba ski area, offering visitors access to two interconnected resorts. Whether you're exploring Naeba’s well-maintained groomers or venturing into Kagura's backcountry, there's plenty of variety for everyone to enjoy. Our trip also features optional night skiing, hot springs, an after ski/board party, free ski / snowboard lessons and more!

It was a very fun and convenient trip! Only 3 minutes' walk from the hotel to the ski resort! Naeba Ski Resort has many beginner-friendly courses, and night skiing was also available. There is a hot spring in the hotel so even tired bodies are very helpful. I'll definitely join in next year too!

Had a great trip! The resort in spring is decent, finding fresh snow can be tricky, but the park adds a fun alternative. As always, the staff was supportive and helpful. The party on this trip was fun, with free drinks and games making it more enjoyable. Totally recommended!

Relatively shorter time to the hotel from shinjuku than usual (maybe a seasonal thing). The powder and slopes where amazing. Wonderful staff. Nice food and fun activities.

The hotel is very close to Naeba Resort, making it super convenient. The resort itself is great, with easy access to the backcountry area. Plus, the party organized by the staff is a lot of fun, and drinks are included! Totally recommended.

What an unforgettable snowboarding trip! I reunited with old friends and also made some new ones. Steven and Robin were fantastic leaders. I highly recommend joining TSC's winter sports team—five stars!

Haven't been on skis for 10 years before going on this trip. Highly recommend the beginner lesson, which for this trip was led by Arino. Super awesome teacher and a great human being. TSC puts on a great trip, I'll definitely be booking more!

It was a great trip. Everything was organised and planned. I liked the hotel and the snowboarding experience. I was a beginner and the instructor taught me to snowboard very patiently.
