Myoko Hosted Experience
You’re in for a treat at one of our favourite ski spots — fewer crowds, quality snow, terrain for all levels, and one of Japan’s longest freestyle parks. We’re also going deeper into the terrain this season, taking you to secret resorts that only the locals know about! Whether you’re coming solo or with friends, we welcome riders of all levels. Our crew will split into smaller groups by skill level, so you’ll always have people to ride with — and push your limits. Our hosts will be with you throughout the week, sorting out your trip logistics, give you riding tips and showing you our favorite powder runs.

Ride deeper into Myoko with us
We’re focusing on the Myoko area for the week – with ski resorts in Myoko, Lotte Arai and Madarao being the focus for the week. We’ll start with a warm up at some of our favourite runs in Myoko, before we head out to begin exploring deeper into the Myoko area. Each evening, our team of hosts will check the latest snow and weather conditions to pick the best resort for the next day.
Each week has 5 half day hosted sessions in the morning, and free and easy afternoons, where you get to choose – to continue riding with those game to do more, or to take it easy and get a break.
IMPORTANT: Take note that no lessons are provided for in this experience and you’ll need to be comfortable off piste, powder and trees. If you are not at the skill level required for the terrain, your hosts have the discretion to recommend for you to sit out of the a portion of the itinerary for your safety.
Morning Mountain Orientation
Ride out with your hosts in small groups by skill level. Your hosts will guide you to the best lines for your ability, show you how to get around the slopes safely —and help you level up through the week.
Afternoon Free & Easy
grab lunch, continue riding with new friends, go back to our favorite runs or start apres-ski early – it’s up to you!
Evening
Unwind at Myoko’s local onsens, eat, drink and hang out with the group. If you’re staying at Mountain Lodge, your package includes daily onsen ticket to Landmark Onsen next door. Dinner reservations will also be made each night at our favourite spots in Myoko. Prefer a quiet night in or on a budget? You’ll also have the option to cook and hang out at the lodge instead! We know this is not a boot camp and there’s no need to rush through your holiday, so take some time to yourself with a Free and Easy day in the middle of the week. Ride, eat, be merry – it’s all up to you.
Check Out
Just like that, it’s Saturday again and you’ll be off to your next adventure, on or off the board – but this is not goodbye, it’s see you again! If you’re heading to another location and would like to arrange for Ta-Q-Bin/ Black Cat to do a pick up for your bags, we’ll bring you to the nearest outpost on Friday evening before 6PM.

Accommodation
Myoko Mountain Hut
Myoko Mountain Hut is our home for the week — a private lodge for our group of 24, with no other guests but your trip mates. It’s the kind of place where strangers become trip mates fast, and by day two you’ll know each other a little too well (in the best way). Think hearty dinners after long days on snow, boots drying by the door, late-night debriefs over a drink, and the slow, easy evenings that end up being the part of the trip everyone talks about long after. We might even build our own mini snow park in the back yard. Ride hard, refuel, recharge, repeat.
Rooms & facilities:
Choose the room that suits you: a private queen room with ensuite, a twin room, or a spot in the 6-person bunk room. Bathrooms are shared throughout the lodge, with 5 showers and 6 toilets between the group.
You’ve asked for more ways to explore the mountains and this season, we’re making it happen. With a 7d6n itinerary starting this season, this means you can travel *between* our destinations and take in the sights of Japan without worrying about rushing on your holiday! From camps that open up progression across more levels – think carving, tree riding, even backcountry – to exploration experiences and expeditions designed to take you deeper into the mountains – you can experience it all, or as much as possible.
More ways to ride, more ways to progress – if this sounds like your kind of season, you’ll want in early.
Early Bird Sale begins 1 July, 4pm.
First Dibs go live on 30 June!
Mountains we’ll be riding
Akakura
The largest ski area in Myoko, you can expect wide groomers for beginners and intermediates to progress on as well as steep terrain with epic tree runs for the advanced riders.
Mountains we’ll be riding
Ikenotaira
Beginner-friendly resort with long and wide piste runs with good tree riding options. Perfect to warm up the legs for the week.
Mountains we’ll be riding
Suginohara
Home to Japan’s longest run at 8.5km, with lots to see along the way. Sugi has something for everyone — steep tree runs, piste of all colours and even moguls for the skiers 😉
Mountains we’ll be riding
Nozawa Onsen
This one’s a crowd favourite! Riding at Nozawa Onsen is the perfect mix of scenic cruising and cultural charm. The resort offers a generous spread of long, open runs ideal for beginners and intermediates, alongside steeper trails and off-piste zones for those wanting more of a challenge. Once you’re off the slopes, you’re straight into a quaint village filled with steaming onsens, narrow streets, and some of the best après-ski eats in Japan.
Mountains we’ll be riding
Madarao
Madarao is great for later in the week once your legs are warmed up! This resort is all about playful powder and tree runs, with 60% of the terrain left ungroomed. The resort features multiple official tree courses and natural bowls, great for intermediate riders looking to explore off-piste in a safe, controlled environment.

Secret Resorts
Crowd’s coming into Myoko and sometimes, it’s always fun to find fresh new lines away from them! We’ll be taking you to secret resorts that only the locals go to.
