牦牛团子:“It's a very fun place and worth a visit. I went there with my family during Christmas in the winter of 2024. The snow scenery was beautiful, and I saw the legendary cute monkeys soaking in hot springs in the snow-capped mountains!”
D34***00:“Really loved the slopes and how huge the mountain range is. You can cross over to different mountains with the all mountain pass. The runs are good and the variety of runs are great of you do use the all mountain pass or shuttle bus to get to different ski fields. The only down side for me was the lack of night life compared to say Niseko and also food options are relatively limited. it's a great place skiing or snowboarding wise especially for beginner and intermediate level folks. I am not at the advance level so that's the only reason why I limited my review to those two levels. I'd recommend this place to my friends!”

快乐时光:“I drove from "Ikaho Onsen" in Gunma Prefecture to "Yudanaka Shibu Onsen Village". I didn't expect that that morning, I would be able to book the famous and historical "Kinguya Onsen Ryokan"! It's great. I'm lucky enough to stay in a hot spring hotel similar to the famous Japanese comic "Spirited Away"!”

旅する主婦:“There are hot springs in many places, and you can enter them for free. They are very hot, but they feel good. The quality of the snow at the ski resorts depends on the day, but it is good, and you can enjoy long courses.”
