Shiga Kogen Snow Monkey Xmas
Overview
Shiga Kogen is Japan's largest ski resort area, offering a vast winter playground with 18 interconnected ski resorts all accessible with the one lift pass. The resort’s high altitude ensures excellent snow conditions throughout the season, and with over 80 kilometers of courses and 70 lifts, there's something for every skier and snowboarder. Whether you’re a beginner, intermediate, or advanced rider, Shiga Kogen provides endless terrain to explore. This trip also includes an optional visit to see the famous snow monkeys soaking in hot springs, free ski/snowboard lessons and a fun xmas event with party games on the Saturday night.
Shiga Kogen boasts a unique advantage with its inter-connected slopes across both the northern and southern zones, offering seamless access to a massive ski area. Unlike other resorts where terrain is fragmented, Shiga Kogen lets you easily explore different areas. With a variety of trails from wide groomers to off-piste tree runs, there’s something for everyone, including those looking for fresh powder without the competition seen at other popular Nagano resorts.
Our hotel is only a 2min walk / ski from the lifts and also features a 24hour, 100% natural onsen (hot spring). On Saturday night after dinner, we will hold a fun xmas party featuring a bar, music and mini-olympics style party games with prizes. On Sunday you can choose to join our Snow Monkey tour (fees are included), or spend another day skiing/boarding Shiga Kogen. You can also fit in a half day skiing/boarding in the afternoon after the snow monkeys if you are keen.
Looking forward to it!!

Best weekend of my life I had so much fun on this trip, I came with a friend but I think that even if I had come alone I would have quickly made friends. The Christmas party was so well organized and accommodations were just what you’d need for a good weekend. Great access to the whole area with the bus station nearby. Food was alright and the onsen always felt amazing. The party was so well organized that even if you came alone, you’d have fun getting to know your team and play games. By the next day I had a whole group of friends to go snowboarding with. I can’t wait for my next trip!
The staff were super helpful the whole weekend and put on a great party. Shiga Kogen is a bit confusing if you’ve never been before (especially when some runs are closed) so highly recommend chatting with them for advice on where to go to suit your level Snow monkeys were a great side trip as well
I don't have any words to describe the trip for it was very well organized and blast! The activities and schedule were well prepared. Let my rating speaks.
Had fun as always. Well organized and coordinated. The apres ski is always a good time. Understandably, no one can control the weather. You gotta make due with what you get.
The Christmas trip was amazing! I had a great time on the slopes and it was very convenient. The snow club took care of transportation, lift tickets, room assignments, and threw a great Christmas party on top of all that. I will definitely be joining more trips in the future. Well done and thank you for an awesome snowboarding experience!
I had a great time with the group. I enjoyed the snowboarding lessons and the instructors were super helpful too. The best part was probably to get to know a lot of people and having fun along the way. I am super excited for the next one!
Great class great vibe best bar tender and beer pon ;)
This trip was memorable in so many ways. The coldest temperature that I've experienced, the longest period of constant fresh snow fall, the beauty of the area, and the snow monkey visit.... it was all unforgettable. TSC made this possible, with entertainment and genuine support every step of the way. I will definitely tour with them again, and recommend others to.
