Enjoy the powder at the very back of the ski resort before it opens

Despite its convenient access—just a two-hour drive from central Tokyo—Kawaba is one of Gunma Prefecture's snowiest areas. In addition to the heavy snowfall, the base's elevation of 1,230 meters allows for dry snow to accumulate.

Kawaba Ski Resort's First Track Cat Service takes advantage of these favorable conditions. Before opening, guests can take a snowcat to the summit of the Crystal Course, the deepest part of the ski resort, and enjoy the magnificent views while enjoying the empty slopes all to themselves. The distance is a whopping 3,300 meters! Departures

begin at 7:30 AM on weekdays and 7 AM on Saturdays and Sundays. Being the first to reach the slopes, renowned for their exceptional snow quality, is highly sought after. This service is popular every year for its "superb thrills and exceptional experience." With the First Track and a one-day lift ticket, you can fully enjoy Kawaba Ski Resort for a full day.
