Shiga Kogen Review Winter 2023/24

I would like to apologize for any mispronunciation of Japanese words. In February 2024, I tried all the ski runs in shiga kogen so you don't have to, and I must say that it is a nice no nonsense resort perfect for several days of Skiing. In this video I review the main ski areas in this resort, as well as our accommodation options. Shiga Kogen is a decently sized ski resort near Nagano, Japan. It is known for its powdery runs. One thing that really struck me at Shiga Kogen was the lack of crowds, which was very important for me. Prices correct as of Feb 2024. I paid ¥11,400 for 2 day pass for the central area. And then ¥13,600 for another 2 day pass for the whole mountain. We stayed at hotel sunny shiga, just opposite from a ski lift. We spent 5 nights at the hotel, costing a total of ¥62,711 per person. Inclusive of dinner and breakfast. Snowboard and boots rental from the hotel cost us ¥1200 a day. For more information on piste map: I have yet to scan and upload my 2023 piste map.
