Biwako Valley

Biwako Valley[Shiga]

closed for the 2024-2025 season

50 minutes from Kyoto. Fine trails with superb views looking down on lake Biwako.

Reach scenic trails in only 40 minutes from the Kyoto interchange. We boast 8 trails, located in the number one place for snow fall, that are rich in variety and snow quality. In addition to the sledging trail there is a half pipe, a snow park well equipped with items as well as a slalom trail and mogul trail so not only advanced skiers but everyone from children to senior citizens will have a great time. For meals the 'Viking' buffet is very popular and scores full points for the size of the portions!
