Guided Ski Trip to Niseko Japan

You've seen it in the movies... Japan's legendary powder is like nowhere else in the world. DEEP cold smoke.

But skiing is only half the story in Niseko. Japan is all about culture with a capital C. Half the fun of a ski holiday here are the amazing experiences to be had sampling this incredible culture. The other half is shredding powder all day and night until you can't take any more.

Niseko boasts amazing backcountry powder stashes where few people tread, and lots of great tree runs. Powder hunters invariably flock to the northern island of Hokkaido in search of spectacular deep powder, off-piste runs and challenging terrain.

Extremely Canadian has nailed Niseko every time, catching DEEP storms and finding new tree stashes every year.

Niseko Resort Details

Niseko Hirafu on Japan's northern most island of Hokkaido is one of Japan's top alpine resorts, comprised of Hirafu, Higashiyama and Annapuri. Ski resorts in Hokkaido tend to be more relaxed than in other parts of Japan and it’s this kind of atmosphere that brings people back again and again. That, and the coldest and driest snow in the country.

Niseko is famous for it's deep and fluffy powder snow. The resort area starts from an altitude close to sea-level and rises to 1200m, offering over 1000m in elevation. Niseko is made up of 57 runs consisting of 38 lifts and gondolas and totaling over 47 km in groomed slopes. Lift facilities are great and operate without rest for over 12 hours a day - starting at 8:30am and closing at 9:00pm. Niseko offers seven different on-mountain restaurants to eat or rest in.
