The ski slopes have only three lifts, which is not a lot, but they are full of fun elements such as open courses, parks, tree runs, and non-compressed snow courses.

Summer activities are plentiful, and the children's cheers echo at the Kids Activity Center, and participants prepare for rafting and travel by bus, making this a lively resort. There is even a golf course with views of Mt Yotei from all 18 holes.

Niseko Village Ski Resort is a large resort that includes multiple ski-in and ski-out luxury hotels and shopping facilities. Niseko Village in winter is full of snow charm. In addition to well-maintained ski slopes, there are also snowmobiling, snow rafting, and snowshoe tours!

In summer, Niseko Village is as rich in activities as in winter. The golf course adjacent to the hotel has strokes from morning until sunset. In addition, people of all ages can enjoy Hokkaido's largest zip line and tree trekking facilities.
