Winter in Niseko, Japan | Travel Vlog | Summer Sky Travels
According to Japan-guide.com, Niseko (ニセコ) is the most famous ski resort in Japan, known for having tons of light powdery snow and a spectacular backcountry. There are a large number of foreigners, especially Australians who in recent years have been responsible for popularizing the resort area with the skiing/snowboarding community outside of Japan. As a result, Niseko's resorts are very accessible and welcoming to foreign visitors, which are kept busy with plenty of vast, long ski runs, endless powder, and a growing number of after-ski activities.
I also met a lot of Asian people, especially Chinese, when I was there during the month of January, which is the peak month for snow. The place gets nearly 15 feet of snow during that time, more than any other ski area in the world.
Together with the other tourists we zip down a short run covered in fairy dust and then ride the lift back to the top of the mountain. In the span of ten minutes that you spend on the lift, you can witness the beautiful scenery, all white surroundings and everything is covered with snow.
FOOD OF NISEKO JAPAN-From Grand Hirafu -AceHill BRYAN SPIEGEL
A sample of just what to expect at Niseko. SPOTLESS world class cuisine. The local chefs cook up a storm at Grand Hirafu-Ace Hill and this is in the cafeteria! Looks more like the back kitchen of a new york restaurant. But even a restaurant in the US wouldn't be this clean. The Japanese define the word Spotless.
