This winter, Blanche Takayama Ski Resort is celebrating its 40th anniversary and entering an exciting new chapter. To share its signature firm and responsive "SolidSnow" with more guests, the resort now officially welcomes snowboarders. Blanche's slopes are meticulously maintained using snow machines that take advantage of the area's cold climate, combined with careful grooming by snowcats. This expertly made and groomed snow is perfect for carving, offering a completely different riding experience from powder, and a unique sense of control. The base area features a long trail for first-timers, escalators, and a kids' park for children of all ages. Thanks to its frequent clear weather and stable conditions, Blanche delivers a consistently enjoyable winter experience.
