Japan is such an amazing country. Yes, we all already know the powder is great, but did you know there’s a whole world of adventure waiting beyond the slopes?
Whether you’re looking for thrills, culture, or relaxation, let’s explore some other activities other than skiing and snowboarding. Here are ten exciting ways to make the most of your time off the mountain:
1. Go Snowmobiling
2. Take a class in making soba noodles.
3. Visit the cheeky Snow Monkeys
4. Stop by Matsumoto Castle
5. See the magnificent Zenkoji Temple
6. Learn to wear a Kimono
7. Relax on an Onsen tour
8. Check out the giant indoor skate park in Hakuba.
9. Say ‘Kanpai’ at a traditional Izakaya restaurant
10. Visit The Olympic Museum in Hakuba
You can try any of these activities if you’re staying at the ski resorts Hakuba, Nozawa Onsen, Shiga Kogen, Myoko Kogen or Madarao. Most people take at least one day off from skiing or snowboarding on their trip.
