Rusutsu Resort Ski Area
World-Class Powder Snow Across Three Mountains
Spread across expansive mountain terrain with stunning views, Rusutsu Resort Ski Area is one of Hokkaido’s premier winter destinations, renowned for its exceptional powder snow.
Overlooking Lake Toya and the iconic peak of Mt. Yotei, Rusutsu is one of Hokkaido’s largest ski resorts. The terrain spans three mountains—West Mt., East Mt., and Mt. Isola. Sheltered by Mt. Yotei from moisture from the Sea of Japan, the area receives abundant, light, dry powder. Gliding down the slopes, the crisp winter air brushes your cheeks, creating a weightless, floating sensation.
Tree run areas wind through broadleaf forests, where the canopy helps preserve premium snow conditions. Carving through the quiet woods leaves trails of fine powder rising against an endless white landscape. With 4 gondolas and 14 lifts connecting the mountains, skiers can easily access all 37 runs across 42 km of terrain.
On clear days, panoramic views stretch from Lake Toya and Mt. Yotei to the distant Pacific Ocean. Ski-in, ski-out hotels and luxury condominiums offer comfortable long stays. As part of the global Epic Pass network, Rusutsu continues to earn international acclaim as a top winter destination.
