Description

The Furano Ski Resort is located in a quaint Japanese city in the centre of Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan.  The city is easily accessed through major airports in Asahikawa and Sapporo.

On of the most popular après ski activities in Furano is soaking away the day’s weariness in one of the many outdoor natural hot springs which also afford magnificent views. Furano is ideally located for day tours to other local mountains where some of the best backcountry skiing and riding is found, including on live smoking volcanoes.
