Niseko Moiwa Ski Resort Recommended Course
・Shirakaba Course
Maximum slope: -degrees Average: -degrees / Distance: 500m / Slope orientation: South
Get off the quad lift and dive into the forest while viewing Annupuri and Mt. Yotei on your left. The senses are wide between the trees, so you can enjoy yourself at your own safe speed. I'm sure you'll find your favorite line if you keep going. There are many entry points, so there is a possibility of no track even in the afternoon.
・Expert course
Maximum slope: -degrees Average: -degrees / Distance: 800m / Slope direction: South
The expert course, where you get off the first lift and slide to the right halfway along the main slope, is basically a compacted snow course, but carving with powder on it feels good.
・Giant course
Maximum slope: -degrees Average: -degrees / Distance: 600m / Slope orientation: South
Get off the quad lift and go straight down to the giant course. The 35-degree open slope, which is ideal for powder, can be seen from the bottom of the slope. Just connect to the main barn and ski the powder zone next to the compacted snow, or connect to the expert course or forest course. The repetition of powder and compacted snow is addictive.
