Hotels in Niseko Ski, Japan
Niseko, located on Japan's northern island of Hokkaido, is famous for its legendary powder snow, with winter temperatures averaging 14°F to 28°F (-10°C to -2°C). You can ski or snowboard across four connected resorts-Hirafu, Hanazono, Village, and Annupuri-each offering groomed runs and backcountry terrain. In summer, the snow melts away, revealing hiking trails through wildflower meadows and scenic bike paths along the Shiribetsu River, with mild temps around 68°F (20°C) perfect for exploring.
