The second snowfall of the season!


Everywhere is looking white once again as we enjoy some more snowfall here in Madarao along with some nice cold conditions - and with more snowfall forecast over the next few days as well.


Madarao Kogen is one of the resorts that usually waits for a decent base and a set opening date in mid December to open up for the season. The official opening date for Madarao Kogen this season is Saturday 17th December. So hopefully, there will be a really good base building up by then...
