Fattwins 0 Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 I dont know of an indoor place in kyoto is there.If so enlighten me. I no of one in Hyogo its so so If you want to jump so so. You can catch a day trip bus from Kyoto station to any resort in Gifu Wings, Dynaland, Takasu and so on. You can book it through Alpen its a chain sports store they are everywhere. Look in the Japanese papers and soon they will have pull out ads. That should tell you the location nearest to you. There is a big store called Mitsuhashi Sports on Oike dori - Karasuma Oike station. But I find them to be expensive but they have the biggest selection in Kyoto. Also if you have access to a car go route 171 near the minami kyoto Meishin Junction there is a huge Alpen I find good deals there. Or go down to Osaka Namaba area and there are 2 gaint stores, I think they will pay the train fee if you buy something over a certain price. The stores arre Sportica and (Himareya in katakana). Kyoto day trips Biwako Valley and a couple of resorts in the Kosei area of Shiga can be hit and home for dinner but for the same price you can do a bus trip to Gifu. Shiga resorts you have to take a Gondola up to the resort which costs about 2000 yen before you buy the ski pass plus the bus from the statoin another 400 yen each way. i can give you lots more keep asking Link to post Share on other sites
