The Myoko area is about to be reborn by a Singaporean investment company. It will become an international ski resort like Niseko and Hakuba in the next few years.

It’s only quiet because you are there early 2023. Not many foreigners were organised to get there early 2023 as most people were unsure of if it was going to open up late 2022 and never pre booked anything. We were possibly there that day if it was January/february 2023 as I remember waiting in that top line and that part of the mountain hadn’t been open for a day or two. Come Jan to March 2024 the foreign invasion hits. I know so many people going and the place is very booked up. No accomodation up near akakura

Glad you're interested to give this a shot. Jan is a great time to go! In terms of tour packages, I would recommend some of the tours to the yuzawa area which can include hotel and transportation. www.jre-travel.com/seasonal/ski/ (link is in japanese)

If I'm staying at Lotte Arai, do you recommend doing Akakura Kanko as a day trip for my beginner-ish snowboarder wife, or stick to Lotte Arai for her?

Will you have a car? If she's fine with the same few runs then you can stay but might be nice to check out some different slopes at some point

Hi! I'll be heading to Myoko in Jan 2024 . Do you have any advice for finding discounted for the Combined Akakura Onsen & Kanko lift ticket? Did your accommodation offered discounts on tickets for this season? If they did what's the pricing like if you are able to share? Thanks!

We unfortunately didn't have any discounts for Akakura, but our accomodation did give us a slight discount for Ikenotaira.
