Hokkaido has ski resorts everywhere. Starting from Sapporo, Sapporo International is good in terms of distance and quality of ski slopes, and the scenery at the top of the mountain is also very beautiful. The 2.5-hour coaching course for 2 people is very cost-effective. I met Aya, a coach from Formosa, who taught us very carefully, especially reminding us where the movements were deformed during the process of leading us to ski, which gave us a very good experience. I gained a lot. She also took beautiful photos for us. It was worth the trip.
Sapporo International Ski Resort, located not far from downtown Sapporo, The facilities seemed a little old, But the beautiful snow scenery and good powder-like snow quality satisfied me.

The venue for the 1972 Sapporo Olympic Games is a 40-minute drive from the center of Sapporo and a 7-minute drive from the Ina Expressway Interchange. The transportation is convenient. If you are interested in skiing, you can go for a run at this ski resort.
Teineyama-an Ski Resort is a very famous exclusive ski resort in Sapporo, Japan. It has complete chemical facilities and equipment. It is also a favorite venue for many ski experts. The ski slopes are very professional, the snow in winter is relatively thick, and there are many hotels to choose from.

During the Spring Festival holiday, I chose Hokkaido because it is said that the snow in Hokkaido is powder snow, which is most suitable for skiing enthusiasts. Even if you fall, it won’t hurt that much. There are many ski resorts in Hokkaido. Considering my schedule and other conditions, I chose Rusutsu. Practice has proved that our choice is right. The snow here is very thick and good, and there are ski slopes suitable for different levels. This trip is very fun. I will go here again if I have the chance.
It's great to ski here in winter, with white snow everywhere and deep and shallow footprints. But you need to wear more clothes as it's quite cold. Ski equipment can be borrowed locally, but you can bring your own.
