For each of the maps in the Interactive Maps section, you can zoom in, zoom out, move the map around and switch from "Map View" to "Satellite View".   Use the buttons on the map, as indicated below.  You can also left click anywhere on a map and drag it in any direction.

You will notice that the text on the Interactive Maps is Japanese - that cannot be helped.  But we still think that the maps as they are will be extremely useful for anyone planning to visit Japanese resorts.  We have added English links to relevant "further information" on Snow Japan for all of the resorts on every page which makes it easier to use and useful even if you cannot read any Japanese.

A few other points:

There's a lot of fun to be had with these maps - we hope you enjoy them.

NOTES & DISCLAIMERS:

It is very important to us that the information we present is accurate.  While every effort has been made to ensure the information in this section is as accurate as possible, there may be some omissions or mistakes.  If you find anything, please let us know and we will look into it immediately. 

The original maps that we have created are not supposed to be used as 100% accurate road maps.  The idea was to provide general maps that give our readers very useful information about the relative location of resorts, and a good idea of the main ways to get to those resorts.  We recommend getting a detailed map of regions if you plan to travel.  Snow Japan takes no responsibility for any travel decisions made based on our maps. 

The vast majority of Japanese ski and snowboard resorts are represented in this section.  Any omissions are most likely because we did not have the relevant information and we would be happy to add them.
