Abundant snow and Hokkaido's best grooming barn
Enjoy powder rides and carving turns

Rusutsu Resort is a place where you can enjoy dry powder unique to Hokkaido in a relatively easy way. Rusutsu has 3 courses on 37 mountains, 4 gondolas and 14 lifts.It takes about 90 minutes from Sapporo city and New Chitose Airport, and it is located slightly before Niseko, so it is easy to access, which is a great point for snowboarders visiting from outside Hokkaido.It is also one of the heaviest snowfall areas in Hokkaido, boasting an annual snowfall of 10m, which is enough to create 11 uncompacted snow courses.There is a non-compacted snow course on each mountain, so there is a high possibility that you can aim for snow-faced cranes wherever you go, but if you want to aim first thing in the morning, the Heavenly area at the innermost part of Mt. Isola is recommended.There are two uncompacted snow courses, "Heavenly Canyon," which stretches 1,850m from the summit to near the bottom, and "Heavenly Spirit," which drops into Heavenly Canyon from Heavenly View.One of the reasons why many powder freaks gather here is that you can fully enjoy the powder ride in Hokkaido-like locations, such as the tree run that slides through coniferous forests such as Japanese larch.

We also want you to experience the comfort of the grooming barn, which is synonymous with Rusutsu.It has a reputation for its high snow grooming skills, and is highly rated by professional riders. The snow groomers with over 15 years of experience are at the forefront of the snow groomers. No matter how much speed you increase, the edge will not be caught by the snow.Since people are distributed over various courses, it is not so crowded, so you can enjoy turns using the entire wide barn without worrying about people.Rusutsu's snow compaction technology makes it easy to slip and connect lines while searching for swells and topography.Rusutsu is also a slope where you can rediscover the pleasure of turning and free running.

In addition, there is a snow park that can be enjoyed according to your purpose, such as the "Freedom Park" where lanes and items are divided according to your level, and a bank zone that makes use of the terrain where you can play while flowing from top to bottom.Rusutsu offers a wide variety of courses that are too large to cover in one day.
