Appi Kogen Ski Resort

Appi Kogen features 21 expansive slopes and excellent snow quality. Experience the exhilaration of skiing on compressed snow and the weightless sensation of powder skiing. Located at 40 degrees north latitude, Appi Kogen benefits from north-facing slopes and a snow environment that provides stable skiing conditions. Beginners can enjoy a 5.5-kilometer downhill course from the summit, while advanced skiers can experience an exciting 2-kilometer course of uncompressed snow with long powder runs and natural bumps. Additionally, the Nishimori and Zailer areas feature tree run zones where you can enjoy Appi Kogen’s premium powder snow.
