LOTTE ARAI RESORT Ski Resort

Beautiful place with tons of activities to do! The staff is very friendly and the landscape is amazing!

Well worthy of the premium lift ticket and trip from Myoko; suited for advanced riders looking for lift-accessed off-piste/powder runs without needing to worry about guides or terrain traps. Even with the terrible lack of snow and high temps of the 2019-2020 season, Arai delivered with a decent snowpack and opened terrain. Stick to the upper areas such as Big Bowl, Funaishi, etc. Lower, smaller areas such as Wase get tracked out quickly and are really nasty to navigate in less than perfect powder conditions. There are a few mellow flats/uphill areas so snowboarders should bring/rent freshly waxed powder boards to get the most out of the terrain. Ample terrain for 2 intense days.

The terrain and powder here is intense and for expert skiers, but is incredible to ski down

Beautiful setting, modern facilities, great powder in some great freeriding terrain

We stayed in the lodge building with 6 people including children. The room was very clean with 4 beds and was equipped with amenities. The starry sky hot spring is large and spacious. There were indoor and outdoor activities that both children and adults could enjoy. It has also become one of the places I want to go.
