General information
Program details
Only 2 hours from Osaka by bus, Biwako Valley is located in the number one place for snow fall in Kansai, rich in variety and snow quality. In addition to the sledging trail there is a half-pipe, a snow park well equipped with snow play items as well as a slalom trail and mogul trail so not only advanced skiers but everyone from children to senior citizens will have a great time. You can also take in a magnificent view of Lake Biwa from the mountain slopes, which supplies water to both Kyoto and Osaka prefecture.
Biwako Valley is the most well-known snow-sports resort in Shiga and for good reason. It boasts eight courses varying in length from a short 400m nursery slope to the fun ‘cruising’ 1400m Champions Course. There is one black run here with an average gradient of 17 degrees and reaching 30 degrees at its steepest point. In short, there is enough here for a skier or snowboarder of any level to enjoy.
