Hokkaido Powder Belt

The Hokkaido Powder Belt not only has the most coveted ski areas for finding the elusive champagne powder snow, it is also the area to escape from the crowds of Niseko and Rusutsu, and have an authentic experience chasing pow.

Conveniently based in Asahikawa or Furano, each day you will visit a different ski resort based on the best conditions of the day, including the unique ropeway-accessed resort of Kurodake in the Daisetsuzan National Park if the conditions are favorable.

This trip caters to beginner to advanced skiers who wish to experience Hokkaido in a different way, with quality on-piste and lift-accessed off-piste terrain.
