Shiga Kogen Now: Wednesday 11th November 2026
Good morning from Shiga Kogen.
Some very light snow to report and just about 1cm to add.
We are approaching the start of the ski season in Shiga Kogen with both Kumanoyu and Yokoteyama planning to open on Saturday. Snow machines are busy preparing for that and as far as I can tell they are both still scheduled to open as planned.
I'll let you know late on Friday.
The section of Route 292 connection Shiga Kogen with Gunma Prefecture closes today for the winter. It should re-open on 21st May 2027.
