Frequently Asked Questions

When does Kagura's ski season run?

Late November to late May, one of Japan's longest seasons. Higher elevation (up to 1,845m) means reliable snow into spring. Popular for Golden Week skiing in early May when most resorts are closed.

How is Kagura connected to Naeba?

The Dragondola gondola (5.5km, world's longest) connects both resorts. One ticket covers both. Kagura has higher elevation and better late-season snow; Naeba has more facilities and nightlife.

Is Kagura good for powder skiing?

Yes. Kagura gets heavy natural snowfall and has ungroomed areas for powder hunting. The Tashiro area offers tree skiing. Less crowded than nearby Naeba, especially on weekdays.
