Niseko Adventure Centre
We were unable to provide the tournament results yesterday, but after carefully reviewing the data, we have now compiled a more accurate version, which you can view here.
For those who were unable to receive their certificates and prizes due to the interruption of the awards ceremony, we will send them out sequentially as soon as they are ready.
Thank you for your cooperation.
This year, we were blessed with fine weather and were able to successfully hold the trail run, including the summit. Thank you so much for your participation. The temperature was a little warm for September, but as always, we were moved by the sight of the runners running at a brisk pace. This year, we introduced an automated scoring system for the first time, but there was a display error in the preliminary scoring section, and the announcement of preliminary results and the awards ceremony scheduled for 12:30 were canceled midway through. We sincerely apologize to everyone who was looking forward to it. We have recorded the data, so we will recalculate it accurately and announce it again on the website at a later date. We ask for your patience. Certificates and prizes will be sent out at a later date, so please wait for those as well. This year was NAC’s first event as part of Tokyu, so we held it without taking too many risks, but there are many possibilities for the future, and we hope to grow the event step by step together with everyone. We look forward to your continued support. Thank you so much for today!

Preparations for the NAC Trail Run in Niseko, to be held on September 6th, are progressing smoothly. While registration usually closes one week before the race, this year, due to the introduction of automated timing, the deadline has been moved forward to August 23rd.
Last year, heavy rain and whiteout conditions forced the 30km course (26.5km) including the mountaintop to be closed, and the event was hastily changed to a 10km course (13.5km) run in loops. What will the weather be like this year?
The current number of participants is 274 as of today, which is roughly the same as last year, although the number of participants for the 10km course (13.5km) is a little low. By the way, we’ve ordered 450 participant T-shirts, so there’s room for about 100 more people. Let’s run around Mount Niseko Annupuri together!
You can apply via the link below or through Runnet.
In conjunction with the Grand Hirafu Gondola’s night operation, Adventure Park will also be holding a night park event. No reservations are required; just come and play by registering at Alpen Node on the day of your visit!
Period: August 9th – 11th
Time: 18:00-20:00
Price: 3,980 yen (1,500 yen for those who played during the day)
Courses: Chameleon 3 courses that can be enjoyed safely even at night
There are tons of events happening in Niseko Hirafu starting tomorrow. Please come and join us!
Here’s a glimpse of today’s ducky tour. You’ll control your own boat and navigate the rafting course to reach the finish line. The thrill and sense of accomplishment you’ll feel after the challenge are exceptional, so come join us!
Summer vacation is in full swing! Here are some photos from a recent family rafting tour. This tour, popular with families with children under elementary school age, allows participants to enjoy playing in the water on a gentle river course using real raft boats. The weather was beautiful that day, and everyone seemed to enjoy floating and drifting along the river. We hope it became a wonderful summer memory for them!
Even after spending a full day at Grand Hirafu Ski Resort, enjoying rafting in the morning, lunch at ALPEN NODE, and tea while taking a gondola ride to admire the spectacular views, there are still plenty of activities waiting for you. Let’s experience together the enriching way to spend a summer in Niseko Hirafu!
Summer vacation has finally begun! There are many ways to enjoy summer in Niseko. If you’re a first-timer and want to let loose, try rafting. If you’re looking for the most exciting thrill, try a ducky kayak. If you want to play in the river at your own pace, try river SUP. And if you want to feel the nature of Niseko’s rivers in the most peaceful way, try river kayaking. The family who joined us today enjoyed a relaxing time in a tandem kayak. Whether you’re with family, friends, a couple, or married, there’s a river activity waiting for you in Niseko to suit your purpose. Let’s play together !
There are many ways to escape from everyday life and immerse yourself in something extraordinary. NAC’s river kayaking tours using sit-on-top kayaks offer a calm and majestic river experience just a few minutes’ ride from Niseko Grand Hirafu Ski Resort. It’s also wonderful to simply immerse yourself in the nature of Niseko in your own way.
The Ace Gondola at Niseko Tokyu Grand Hirafu Ski Resort opened today, and along with it, the restaurant facilities ALPEN NODE and NEST813, as well as the pickleball, mountain cart, and mountain bike courses, are also fully open. To commemorate this, the HIRAFU OPEN FESTA is being held today and tomorrow. There will be a free raft simulation experience in the pool, workshops to make keychains and bird calls, free access to a portion of the adventure park courses (reservations required on the day at NODE), and the mountain bike courses will also be free for these two days.
Today was a fantastic day, and we had so many people come to visit us, making it a very lively and enjoyable time! Thank you! We’ll be continuing the event tomorrow as well, so please come and relax with us!
Of course, our regular tours are also running. Starting today, registration is at ALPEN NODE, and the tour meeting and disbanding point is .BASE (Dot Base) across the street.
