I've been lucky enough of have visited number 10 Appi-Kogen and Number One Niseko, and enjoy both.

Would definitely love to visit the top three in North Japan, snowboarding in powder is the best!

Worked for Hanazono Resort in Niseko from 2004 to 2011. Great spot especially when you get up to the peak and the Nth and East face. Sadly now it's expensive and get's skied out very quickly. So many other great cheaper resorts in Hokkaido that are worth visiting.

I work in Hong Kong so it is not too far for a weeks skiing. Me and wife try to go once a year and our favourite spot is definitely Myoko. It has yet to be discovered by the crowds that descend on the bigger Hokkaido resorts or even Hakuba, is good value for money, everyone welcomes us back like an old friend and OMG the snow! We got around a metre of the fresh stuff every week we have been. Just brush up on your 日本語 before you go as the locals English ability can be limited, but to me that is part of the charm. Going back in January for a delayed honeymoon and we can't wait!

Hi, how is the accessibility from airport going to Myoko?

@@dunno558 Fairly straightforward. Tokyo has two Airports, Haneda and Narita. From either of them you need to make your way to Tokyo station in the centre of the city, but there are lots of transport options. Then from Tokyo station you can take the Shinkansen to Nagano city which is about 90 minutes. At Nagano you need to switch to a local train that goes directly to Myoko which will be another 40 minutes

Yeah, many of the ski resorts in Niigata prefecture are worth visiting. Definitely a more local environment compared to the Hokkaido resorts.

Good list. I have skied years in Japan. Visited all these resorts except Appi. My favor was Niseko until to became full of Aussies and other foreigners. Traditional Japanese ryokans disappeared, prices everywhere rose, and off pisted become crowded. After that I went to other smaller resorts (not on this list) but they still keep they traditional Japanese ski culture. Not a party playground for Aussies.

As yet Appi is not overwhelmed with us English speakers (although I'm not helping), I have also heard friends say the same about Switzerland, forget the big resorts and look for the smaller less known resorts to avoid crowded slopes and lift queues.

It would be much more helpful if you show the location of these resorts on map.

Why are there so many non-Japanese footage here? Eg. 10:11 is Hong Kong, NOT New Chitose Airport, and as someone mentioned below, 0:09 is Russia not Japan. Such misleading content.

Wrong - Hannamaki Airport is only one hour from Api Kogen, and Aomori Airport about 1 hr. 45 min. Also, ski Api one day and then hit Shizukuishi the next.

Click bait computer generated by someone that does not live in Japan obvious by the wrong mispronunciation of Japanese words. I would argue that only half of these are the top 10 but that is all opinion based.

it's surprisingly pretty accurate, although it totally is AI-generated. These 10 are all well-known in Japan as top ski areas, and while the pronunciation is off, the info is more or less correct. I guess you could argue some of these, but i don't think this is a misleading list necessarily 👍

Much cheaper options if you just look around. Avoid ski hill accommodations and major areas and you'll save a lot.
