Tazawako Ski Resort

Just came back from Tawazako Ski Resort and I’ll review my experience based on a few things - Staff - For some reasons 80% of the staff on the mountain are elderly which means they are VERY limited in English and they couldn’t even point me towards beginners slopes. Chair lift - one of the chairlift is quite aged it doesn’t even have a safety bar and the seats are quite old too, but other chairlifts are okay. Snow - Absolutely powder snow, it is so soft and for beginners like us it didn’t hurt much when we fall unlike Snow in Australia is quite hard. Food - I just can’t complaint when you get to eat delicious ramen on snow mountains. Price - I think the price for chairlift and rental are quite reasonable so not surprise here. Definitely worth a visit if you like skiing or snow boarding, at least we had a blast.

Good place... However beware: not English friendly. We got sent to an advanced slope when we asked 3 different persons to point us towards the begginers slope

Loved this little mountain! It's not biggest or difficult mountain, but the off piste powder riding was amazing!! Best part, no crowds!! Felt like had the whole mountain to myself.

Wonderful ski resort. Courses are designed to overview Lake Tazawa. Staffs were friendly. Recommendable for skiers/snowboarders who are above intermediate level.

Great snow and good restaurant. No real beginners tows.
