Hello from Nozawa!
It's November, which means that I am able to say... Nozawa Onsen plans to open later this month! Yes, the planned opening date for the 2021-2022 season is Saturday 27th November, so it is less than four weeks away. The season usually begins with a limited opening of upper areas and I recommend you take a look back at archive reports to see how things have happened in recent years.
The upper areas of mountains in northern Nagano have already seen their first snowfall of the season and we have had some suitably colder conditions as well, after that very hot summer.
Everyone is hoping that this upcoming season will be brighter and busier, though of course the international borders of Japan still remain closed for tourism. It would be good to hear encouraging good news on that front, but for the moment we all just need to wait and see how it plays out. Things do seem to generally getting more positive though. Please let that continue.
I will post again before the season begins with news of snowfall, and then cover the season once again once it gets started.
Planned opening date (subject to change):
