A good place to ski in Japan - GALA Yuzawa Ski Resort

December is a good opportunity for skiing. If you don't want to go as far as Hokkaido, there are many choices around Tokyo~ For example, Nagano and Niigata. Because it takes about eight or nine hours to go to Nagano, I finally chose the gala ski resort inside the snow field, which can be reached directly by Shinkansen in one hour and twenty minutes. Book a package online 11500 yen/person (including Shinkansen round trip designated seat➕snow field cable car ticket). If you buy a ticket at the green window, it will cost about seven thousand yen one way from Tokyo station to the snow field, so it is very cost-effective to book tickets online. This snow field does not require a ticket. Snow equipment, clothes, hats, goggles and so on can be rented on the spot, a set is about 12500 yen. If you need a coach, you can choose one-on-one or large classes. One-on-one needs to be booked in advance, and large classes can be registered on the spot 5500 yen/person. The 90-minute class will teach you some basic knowledge. The snow trails are divided into beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. If you are a beginner, you should obediently take the beginner's trail. Don't underestimate the beginner's trail. At the beginning, I basically fell down, super exciting. The latest must return the snow equipment before five thirty in the afternoon, the cable car will stop running at four thirty in the afternoon, try to go early to play more fun. Personally, I suggest playing there for two days, you can enjoy the snow scene while soaking in the hot spring at night, it's so beautiful
