Shizukuishi Ski Resort
Shizukuishi Ski Resort is located in Shizukuishi, Iwate Prefecture. This full-scale ski resort hosted the 1993 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. Its signature attraction is a varied downhill course extending up to 2,648 m. With 16 courses in total, the resort caters to everyone from beginners and families to advanced skiers.
The runs are planned out pretty well. Beginners to intermediate skiers can have a lot of fun without feeling intimidated the moment they get up there.
The lift ride is smooth too. Best part: on a clear day you can see Mt. Iwate. Skiing with that view is a huge plus—you’ll keep wanting to stop and take photos.
