| Minakami is a hot
spring town in the northern region of Gunma
Prefecture, nestled in the Tanigawa range of
mountains. It may not have got the publicity of
it's neighbour (Yuzawa is located to the north), but
it does have a fair bit to offer skiers and
snowboarders. There are 10 ski and snowboard
resorts in the region that cater for beginners and
families to powder hounds and big mountain riders.
|
 |
The size and
consistency of snowfalls in the region are on
average equal with more well known areas of
Hokkaido. Minakami is also easy to get to, being
just a 70 minute shinkansen bullet train ride (Joetsu
Shinkansen) from Tokyo.
