In Sapporo Station, there is a bus directly to Hokkaido International Skiing Ground. It takes an hour. I remember that the ticket is more than 400 yen. Everyone basically prepares their own snow gear. Only I and Hauge are not. It's really low. The whole ski resort is divided into three tracks, which are primary, intermediate and advanced. If you're a beginner, there's a flat area for you to practice, and it's free. And if you want to ski on the ski track, you have to pay a fee. The coupon is more than 4000 yen a day.
