The spring course is finally coming to an end, and we’ll soon be moving on to the summer course.

This is what Niseko looks like today, with the sparkling sun and vibrant new greenery. This year, the water level is dropping a little faster than usual, and the so-called “Spring Course,” which is only accessible during the snowmelt and flood season, is nearing the end of its run. There’s a long-standing tradition at NAC that you can enjoy the Spring Course as long as the “Spring Waterfall,” which only appears in spring at the ski resort, is flowing, but it’s definitely nearing the end of its run. Once the Spring Course is no longer accessible, the next course will be the “Summer Course” upstream.
