Skiing in the winter holidays of 2025/2026

I have been sharing my bucket list for the winter holidays 2025 / 2026 of the family outings I hope to have. One thing I would love to do this winter holidays is ski. I love that skiing is something you can do in winter in Japan.

Its a bit early for the good snow in the Kanto plain, but in Saitama prefecture we have a decent artificial snow slope in Tokorozawa. Which is just as well, because Saitama Prefecture doesn't get much snow, so we have no real ski slopes. The artificial snow slope in Tokorozawa is convenient to us, so hopefully we'll be able to squeeze in a visit during the winter school break.

Have you been skiing yet this year? Will you go during the winter school break? Do you have a ski slope near you?
