and
Powder to the People
since 1972
ABOUT
Myoko Ski Lodge provides centrally located Myoko accommodation in Akakura Onsen ski village with easy access to the best Myoko ski resorts and some of the most reliable powder skiing in the world.
Start each day with a complimentary, western, continental, self serve breakfast in our spacious, valley view dining area overlooking the village.
Then it's just a 3 or 4 minute walk to either one of two ski resorts flanking the village. Families can walk 300m down hill to a chair lift at Akakura Onsen Ski Resort with English speaking ski schools and for the more advanced skier looking for bigger lines and great backcountry, it's just a 300m walk up the hill to the adjoining Akakura Kanko Ski Resort.
Or jump aboard our daily 4wd minivan excursions to explore more of the nine Myoko ski resorts and attractions within a 40 minute radius. Knowledge is powder and with a wide variety of terrain including Japans longest groomer, biggest inbounds freeride zone, deepest powder, amazing tree skiing and awesome Myoko backcountry, we know where the best conditions are forecast and plan your daily adventures accordingly, making Myoko Ski Lodge great value accommodation and our central Akakura Onsen location the best place to stay in Myoko.
After each epic day, carving your name on Mount Myoko, it's time to relax with a revitalising soak in one of our own, in-house, natural onsen baths which are direct fed from a volcanic hot spring.
Then socialise with a drink by the double sided, stone fire place, before strolling to dinner at a ramen bar or one of several other delicious, village restaurant options or choose to whip up something simple (or fancy) with your family and friends (old and new) in Myoko Ski Lodge's self catering communal kitchen.
After dinner, retreat to the cosy lounge to compare tales of the day's memorable experiences and share plans for tomorrow's adventures before retiring to the comfort of your Western bed.
