Gourmets. Patisserie Special Desserts.
Restaurant Rocky is the main restaurant on the resort serving many different dishes. Their patisserie’s specialty dessert is highly praised among the guests.

Relax in the Hot Spring After the Ski.
Soaking yourself in a hot spring bath after all day skiing is so nice and relaxing! There is Tennen Washigatake Onsen on the first floor of the main lodge building located at the bottom of the resort. This facility is a direct access from the ski slope. The facility has an outdoor bath (called ‘rotenburo’), sauna and jacuzzi and is popular with families.
Wide-Open Trail!
Again, this resort is known for its wide-open trail but also has a long course for more advanced skiers. Everyone can find a way to have fun at this resort.
Although, as this resort is very popular, it may be crowded on some days. However, we still think it worth going there. If you go, make sure you purchase a combined lift pass that lets you access Whitepia Takasu so you can experience the full-scale skiing at Washitopia.
