Chateraise Ski Valley Koumi trail map
Chateraise Ski Valley Koumi, long known as Koumi Reex, is a resort on the eastern foot of the northern Yatsugatake run by the Chateraise confectionery group. From the 1,780 m top a 2.5 km descent runs to the base, and dry natural snow backed by snowmaking gives good early-season conditions. Families get gentle runs, a kids' play slope, a kids' park and a sledding area, while the 32-degree Eiger run, moguls and a race course challenge stronger skiers. The Gateaux Kingdom Koumi hotel with a natural hot spring sits by the slopes, and day tickets can be swapped for Chateraise Ski Valley Nobeyama on the same day.
