Before choosing where to stay
Getting Around
Access is primarily via JR lines. During the peak winter ski season, transportation can become congested due to high visitor numbers. Travelers should plan ahead and allow extra time for transit between hotels and slopes.
Best Season
Winter (December to March) is the prime season for skiing and soaking in hot springs. Summer offers a cool escape from the heat, making it suitable for enjoying the mountainous landscape and natural scenery without the winter crowds.
