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.

Enjoy spring in Niseko with us !

Golden Week has officially begun! This year, the cherry blossoms around Niseko are in full bloom, earlier than usual. The Niseko mountain range road, “Panorama Highway,” has also reopened after snow removal. Although there is considerably less snow now, Niseko’s ski resorts will remain open throughout Golden Week. And the exciting snowmelt whitewater rafting, a signature activity of Niseko during Golden Week, is even more thrilling after last night’s rain! For families with small children, we recommend the “Adventure Park,” a tree trekking experience that incorporates a variety of activities such as ziplining and bungee jumping. Enjoy delicious food, Niseko’s spring foliage, remaining snow, and snowmelt whitewater rafting to the fullest! Walk-ins and same-day phone reservations are accepted, so please feel free to contact us.

Spring Rafting starts April 4th
Spring is finally just around the corner. This year, as usual, rafting will start on the first Saturday of April.

From this spring, the meeting point for the activity will change. We have moved from the NAC Center, which has been familiar to everyone, to Niseko Tokyu Grand Hirafu Ski Resort. From April ~ June, the Mountain Center is the meeting point for summer activities. The ski resort is also open until Golden Week, so you can enjoy skiing, snowboarding, and spring rapids rafting without moving! Please enjoy the spring whitewash snow, commonly known as shouter, and the spring torrent rafting and spring in Niseko to the fullest!
We’re hiring !
