Niseko Annupuri International Ski Area trail map
Niseko Annupuri International sits on the south face of Mt. Niseko Annupuri and is one of the four resorts that make up Niseko United. People come for the deep, light powder and broad open runs, with Mt. Yotei filling the view from around the top gondola station. A six-seat gondola and five chairlifts serve 13 courses, from gentle slopes at the base to a steep ungroomed tree course, so it works for families as well as strong riders. Night skiing runs through the core of the season and spring skiing lasts into early May. Hot spring inns and hotels sit at the base, and buses link it with Niseko Station, Sapporo and New Chitose Airport.
