The best way to get to Togari Onsen is to catch Shinkansen bullet train from Tokyo to Iiyama station. Then catch a local Iiyama line from Iiyama station to Togari Nozawa Onsen. Then your accommodation staff will pick you up from the train station which we can arrange for you.

Snow Vacance Village

There is a little secret about this resort. Since the Uma nose Pair Lift on the right hand side of the course map got suspended, the Snow Vacance Village area has been abandaned and most of the area is non-groomed. So when you get fresh snow, you can enjoy ungroomed powder. There is free shuttle bus run from the bottom of the Snow Vancance Village to take you back to the main slope. Then you can go back up to the top and keep doing the ungroomed runs until all trashed. The local people call this "Shuttle Mawashi" meaning keep going around and around by shuttle to enjoy the fresh POW until gone.

Togari Onsen offers Yuki-Chari which means riding bike on the snow. It is Japan's very first Snowbike activity. It is interesting to see the snowbikes carried on the chairlifts. It is a special feeling to ride amoungst all the skiers and boarders!
