MADARAO MOUNTAIN RESORT
Nagano
The Mountain
Madarao is a nice sized mountain with some great tree runs. Madarao is a small mountain, but it very popular because of the easy navigation around the mountain, powder tree runs and typcal Japanese style friendly service. Mt. Madarao consists of Madarao Mountain Resort on one side & Tangram on the other side and are connected by a lift. Day trips to Nozawa Onsen and Myoko Kogen are also possible. Madarao has about 10 restaurants & bars so you can enjoy dining out in the small resort village. We have been working with Madarao since 2008 & have close relationships with the resort team. Touma is one of our travel consultants works at Akis Pub and Ski school, so he knows Madarao.
Where to stay
The most popular accommodation on the Madarao side are Madarao Kogen Hotel and Monaile Madarao because they are both ski in/ski out hotels. Hotel Tangram on the Tangram side is also ski in ski out.
The Location
The fastest route to Madarao is to fly into Haneda or Narita Airport, catch the airport shuttle bus to Tokyo Train Station, take the Shinkansen to IIyama and then take the bus to Madarao. We will provide you with detailed up to date transfer info 21 days before you arrive and we can help plan and book all transfers.
The owners were very friendly people. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Elm Pension and plan to return during March to try snow shoeing as recommended by Toshi-san. The meals were big, filling and delicious. The room was perfectly heated and the beds comfortable. Overall a great experience. Thank-you very much.
