GALA Yuzawa Snow Resort is located in Yuzawa-machi, Niigata. Even though this resort is only a 71-minute Shinkansen ride away from Tokyo, it has the best snow in the area. From the top of the mountain, which is 800 meters above sea level, you can look out over Niigata’s vast ocean of Uonuma Koshihikari rice fields. Courses are available for all levels of skiers, from beginners to the more advanced. You can check on the status of the courses and lifts in real time online, making for a smooth visit to GALA Yuzawa for both beginner and pro skiers and snowboarders alike.
