The Dragondola links it to Naeba: 5,481 metres, the longest in the world in 2002.
Divided into three areas (Kagura, Mitsumata and Tashiro, between 620 and 1,845 metres above sea level), it is linked to neighbouring Naeba by the Dragondola, which opened in 2002 as the longest gondola in the world (5,481 metres, a fifteen-minute ride, eight-seat cabins). The Kagura area stays skiable from late November to late May, one of the longest seasons in Japan together with Shiga Kōgen in Nagano.
A ski area of the Prince Hotels group in Yuzawa, linked to Naeba, valued for its snow cover that lasts until late spring.
ℹ️ Ski season until late May in the Kagura area, shorter in the other two areas; hours and prices vary by season, so check the official site (princehotels.co.jp/ski/kagura) before setting off.
