Excellent access from Kobe, Osaka, and Kyoto

There are three ski resorts in Kannabe Highlands. It takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes by train or bus from Kobe, Osaka, or Kyoto, and is easily accessible by car.

A ski resort in Kannabe Highlands that is popular for its ability to enjoy authentic winter sports.
It has a long history, and 2023 will mark 100 years since the ski resort was opened. In 1957, it became a popular venue for Kansai's first national ski tournament, and since then many competitions have been held at the Kannabe ski resort. It is a ski resort loved by a wide range of skiers and snowboarders, from competitors to families, due to its easy access from Keihanshin and its excellent snow quality.

Up Kannabe Ski Resort

The wide and gentle slopes are perfect for beginners and intermediate skiers to practice, and even those who have never skied or snowboarded can enjoy them with confidence. In addition to early morning hours and night skiing facilities, there is also a ``snow playground'' that is popular with children, making it a popular ski resort where the whole family can play all day long.

80% of Up Kannabe is sloped for beginners and intermediates, and all courses are wide and spacious, so even beginners can enjoy it with confidence.

“Yuki no Yuenchi” is one of the largest in Kansai and has the largest number of attractions, and is recommended for small children! There is a ``Snow Merry-Go-Round'' where you can ride on a floating snow tube and rotate through the snow, ``Snow Rafting'' where you can slide through the snow on a banana boat, and a ``Kids Way'' belt conveyor that is easy to get on and off in the kids area. Perfect for children's first time skiing or sledding.

Okujinbe Ski Resort

Oku-Kannabe Ski Resort, affectionately known as "OKUKAN," is one of the ski slopes at Kannabe Kogen Ski Resort.

It is located at the innermost part of the ski resorts in Kannabe Plateau and boasts the highest altitude of Kannabe. The slope becomes more severe as the altitude increases, so we have a full-fledged course that is also used as a competition course.

This ski slope is popular with intermediate and advanced skiers, but there is also a kids park where you can have fun with small children. The summit is connected to Manba Ski Resort, and you can freely go back and forth from the Shiki-no-Mori Course, making it twice as fun! There are many rest areas on the vast slope, and there are many features that can be enjoyed by parents and children of three generations.

Manba Ski Resort

This is a perfect slope for families with different skill levels to go out with a group of friends, including a family slope suitable for beginners, a center hole slope with a wide slope popular with snowboarders, and a full-fledged triangle slope that has been used in tournaments. Also, since the mountaintop is connected to the Okujinbe slope, we recommend purchasing a common lift ticket if you want to fully enjoy the snowy Kannabe plateau!

Manba Ski Resort is popular for its abundant snowfall and good snow quality, and boasts long runs that can reach a total length of approximately 4,000 meters when connected with a wide variety of courses. Broadly divided, there are ``Family Slope,'' ``Center Hall Slope,'' and ``Utopia Slope,'' and on top of that, there are three slopes: the ``Triangle Course ABC,'' and the ``Rinkan Course.'' The view from the Center Hall slope is especially spectacular, and when the weather is nice, you can feel refreshed by skiing comfortably while enjoying the view on the spacious slope.
