Kamui Misaka is a ski area located in Fuefuki City in the central region of Yamanashi Prefecture.
This ski area has four pair lifts and a maximum gradient of 21 degrees. The courses at this ski area are suited mainly for beginners and lower intermediates, and one course (Family Course) is skiers-only. Snowboarders are welcomed on the other runs.
Artificial snowmaking machines are used extensively at Kamui Misaka, with any heavy natural snowfall being a bonus.
Access to this ski area by car from nearby populated areas is relatively easy, so it is a popular day trip for those not wanting to head into 'snow country'.
There is an indoor 100m halfpipe facility next to the ski area. It is usually open from the second half of April until November.
