Independent snow and weather reporting from the Madarao region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 0cm
Snowfall at base this season 116cm

Posted on Thursday 25th December 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


OK so in a change of plan, Madarao appears to be part open today.


From what I can tell, there is actually 5 lifts moving.


I'm not sure what/why the change, as we haven't had any new snow. The official snow depth at both ski areas is... 10cm. Oh dear.


OK mood change. I'm excited about the snow that we expect by tomorrow and through the day. Forecasts seem to say that we'll get strong blowy winds, too.


Night skiing at Madarao from 27th-30th December has been cancelled.
