Japanese ski resort seasonal preparations

Overview

As the 2026-27 winter season approaches, Japanese ski resorts have begun preparations through seasonal pass sales and environmental initiatives.

Resorts such as Hakuba Iwatake Mountain Resort in Nagano Prefecture and Spring Valley Sendai Izumi Ski Resort have launched early bird sales and application processes for season passes. These offerings include various discounts and benefits for skiers.

Concurrently, Protect Our Winters Japan (POW JAPAN) is expanding its ‘POW Ticket’ initiative to 17 resorts across seven prefectures. This program allows skiers to provide donations that fund sustainability projects, such as forest maintenance, renewable energy transitions, and waste reduction. The organization is also expanding its ‘Yuki Maji POW Ticket’ to target climate change awareness among skiers aged 19 to 22.
