Ojiro is located in the southern area of Kami town in the northern region of Hyogo Prefecture.
An 8-person gondola takes people from town-level base to the slopes higher up on the mountain-side. Dogs can take a ride on the Gondola - on the special pet-friendly gondola cabins - to use the Dog Run facility. As long as they are with their owners, of course. Dogs - take your owners, please.
Hyogo Prefecture is located in the Kansai region of western Japan. It stretches the width of the country and has a coastline both on the Sea of Japan to the north and on the Seto Inland Sea to the south. Most of the ski and snowboard resorts in Hyogo Prefecture are located in the northern region of the Prefecture.
