What is Fujiten Snow Resort?
This ski resort is located at the first station of Mt. Fuji and is easily accessible from Tokyo (Shinjuku) in about 90 minutes by train or express bus, so it is visited by many Japanese as well as foreign tourists.
At Fujiten Snow Resort, in addition to skiing, snowboarding, and sledding, you can also ride the lift and view the majestic Mt. Fuji from the Mt. Fuji Observation Deck, even if you don't ski or snowboard (only available on weekdays).
Enjoy skiing♬
If you've come all the way to a ski resort, skiing is definitely an activity you'll want to enjoy.
However, when it comes time to go skiing, there are many things to worry about, such as what to wear, what to prepare, how to ski, and how to get on the lift. The following lessons and packages are recommended for such people. Choose according to your ski level!
Please note that all lessons and packages require advance reservations online.
If you are skiing for the first time, take the "Concierge Tour" *For foreign visitors only
Skiing requires a lot of equipment such as skis, boots, and poles, and the length of the boards you use will vary depending on your height. For beginners who don't know what to rent or what they need, we recommend a concierge tour where they can teach you everything from preparation before the lesson.
On the concierge tour, an instructor will be with you for two hours, so you can enjoy skiing with peace of mind.
"Private lesson'' with 1-2 experiences
Private lessons are recommended for those who have experienced skiing once or twice, or those who are going skiing for the first time in a while. If you ski for the first time in a long time, there is a risk of injury due to falling or colliding with others, so please relearn the basics and enjoy skiing safely.
Fujiten offers "class lessons" and "private" lessons for each group level, but class lessons are conducted in "Japanese", so if you do not understand Japanese, please reserve a private lesson. If you would like to have lessons in English, please be sure to write ``I would like lessons in English'' in the notes section when making a reservation.
To take a private lesson, you will need to pay the private lesson fee, lift fee, and rental fees for other clothing and equipment.
