Hoshino Resorts Alts Bandai operates a unique style of shuttle-like cat skiing on a dedicated course within the ski resort.
A style where you can freely slide down 4 courses from loose medium slopes to steep slopes of 37 degrees (closed depending on the conditions).
The middle slopes are mainly slopes that have been created, so they are easy to slip, making them ideal for first-time cats and powder beginners. It's inside the ski resort so it's safe and secure. No BC equipment is required, and reception is on a first-come, first-served basis in the morning, so you can easily participate. There are 3 flights a day, and you can use one at a time, so I definitely want to try it.
