Gokase Highland closed for 2023-2024 season (due to nearby typhoon damage) Gokase Highland（五ヶ瀬ハイランドスキー場）in Gokase (Miyazaki) will not be opening for the 2023-2024 season. The ski area was closed last season (2022-2023) due to a powerful typhoon causing damage to the access road. Unfortunately, the road has not been fixed sufficiently, and it has been announced that the ski area will not be opening for the 2023-2024 winter season. Gokase Highland is the most southerly ski area in Japan. We wish them well and hope to see them back next year. Ski area information on SnowJ
