Okunakayama Kogen
Iwate Prefecture’s Okunakayama Kogen Ski Resort offers a total of eleven ski zones that take advantage of the mountain’s natural terrain. Zones are clearly separated with intermediate and advanced slopes starting at the summit and beginner slopes found at the base. Located in a region of Iwate with heavy snow, the mountain’s base elevation rests at 650 meters while summit elevation is at 1018 meters-creating a whopping 368-meter vertical drop. This enables you to enjoy superb powder snow during the resort’s skiing season. At the top of the mountain, the advanced snow zones known as Hayabusa and Tsubame await-offering non-compacted powder snow.
