Ski Appi Kogen | Japan

Known for offering some of the best high-quality skiing in Japan, Appi Kogen is a popular resort located just a 3.5 hours north of Tokyo by train. This destination provides a generous range of slopes catering to all skill levels, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced skiers. The resort is renowned for its quality grooming but still offers plenty of ungroomed runs for those who love powder.

Appi consists of a few lodges and hotels situated at the base of the mountain, with most restaurants, services, and facilities located within these hotels. The village is easily accessible on foot, with all amenities, accommodations, and ski lifts just a short walk away. For evening entertainment, a couple of bars in the hotels stay open until midnight, and there are private karaoke rooms available for hire.
