Mountainwatch joins forces with Liquid Snow Tours

By Bart Last updated March 23, 2026

The Mountainwatch team are as passionate about the mountains as you are. Our site has always been about delivering the best mountain weather forecasting, snow news and mountain travel out there! Which is why we’re excited to announce that we’re adding to our travel offering by joining forces with our sister company, iconic travel brand, Liquid Snow Tours.

What does this mean? Mountainwatch Travel is about to reach all new heights, snow-capped and all! We’ve now got the added benefit of 16 years of travel experience on our team, company-owned ski properties and offices on the ground in Australia, Japan and New Zealand.

We’re looking forward to travelling the world again just as much as you are and we’re confident it won’t be long before we’re hitting big lines in Japan, Canada, USA and New Zealand.

Our team, with their years of experience chasing pow and designing ultimate ski holidays, have been working on some epic snow packages in Hakuba, Myoko Kogen and Shiga Kogen for Japan 2022 – with guided tours and other resorts coming to the Mountainwatch Travel pages soon.

From local tips and tricks, to 24/7 in-resort services, and the best value trips out there, Mountainwatch Travel is your one-stop-shop for everything mountain travel related. Where else can you check snow reports, see where the best snow is falling and book a trip to that destination right away? Then head to our Mountainwatch Store to score the latest gear and get shred ready.

Just picture arriving in Japan to welcome drinks, spending your days being guided to the ‘white gold’ hot-spots and your nights in traditional onsens (or izakayas for a sake or two). Bring on 2022!

Lizzie was so helpful, gave us some options and advice to help us pinpoint where we wanted to go. And once we had booked provided some really helpful travel advice and answering questions we had. Easy to deal with, everything was smooth and we had a great time.

Shelly Drewitz

Calum was awesome at helping us every step of the way with our trip. We got a great deal on the accommodation and ski lift, and we will definitely come back to Mountainwatch next time based on his excellent service.

I booked my Japan ski holiday through Mountainwatch. Very professional and when we arrived in Japan all was laid out for us. The accommodation was even nicer than expected. KIrsty was very good to work with and made things very easy!!!! will book again next season.

Great experience booking through this company, our contact Anna was brilliant, and organised a fantastic ski trip for us. The travel was all clearly laid out, the accommodation was lovely, the ski field was fantastic, great range of local dining options and bars.

Thanks Kirsty, once again your arrangements for us in Japan worked very well. We’ll have no hesitation about touching base with you before we make another booking….. not sure if we’ll be organised by June, but we’ll see. Have a great season yourself and keep up the good work at MountainWatch. Regards Jan and Tom

Samantha Farr

Our trip to Hakuba and Tokyo was so smooth and easy thanks to the help of Justine. Hotel was great and in a perfect location and it was very smooth having all our extras like lessons and rentals booked and sorted before we arrived. Would 100% book through Mountainwatch Travel again!

This is the second year that Kristy has organized travel arrangements for a skiing holiday to Furano in Japan, for us. It is the second time that those arrangements have been fulfilled seamlessly. No hassles, as planned and on time. Perfect, and will use Mountainwatchj Travel again. John Durham

We booked through Anna O’Malley for our stay in Nozawa onsen Village in Japan. Seamless service, prompt, and pricing reasonable. The Shimataya View Hotel, was a lovely stay. Room size was large, great views, and Amazing service from Staff. Momoi and Eloisa couldn’t help enough- from dinner reservations to organising luggage to Tokyo. Property is older, though clean, well maintained. 10 min walk to slopes, 5 min walk to village centre. I recommend Mountain Watch, and this property. Photos are the view from our room.
