Appi Ski Resort

Appi ski resort is located in the very north-east of Japan’s mainland and near the Towada Hachimantai National Park. Appi’s snow quality is exceptional, with an abundance of light dry powder. Snow storms move across the Sea of Japan and pass over the Ou mountain range before descending upon the Appi ski resort. There is an impressive 828 meters vertical from peak to base, spread across 282 hectares.

Appi’s facilities include a ski school with English speaking instructors, kids’ activities and kindergarten (from three years), as well as a snowmobile land, various cross country courses, nature tours, snow cat tours and snowshoeing.

Appi Village Facts

Established in the Japan bubble era, this glitzy resort is considered one of the better resorts in Japan. While there isn’t a village, Appi presents some great accommodation, excellent cuisine and a good range of resort facilities. As with most Japanese ski resorts, there isn’t really any nightlife. Appi caters well for English speaking guests.
