Hello and welcome back all you powder hounds and tree run lovers! After 2 years the border is finally open again with the perfect timing for all of you to be back in Japan for another winter of powder extravaganza here at Madaro. Last year was one of the snowiest winters in a generation and the same weather phenomena, which is one key ingredient for a snowy winter in Japan, is still around in the pacific: EL NINA. Yes everybody, expect another record breaking winter here at Madarao with 12+ meters of snowfall. Our team is preparing to be ready again for this kind of snowfall, so you all can have a pleasant and relaxing time after you play in the snow till your muscles burn from the deep powder here in Madarao. We have an onsite bar and restaurant to your convenience and will have fresh coffee for you waiting at our cafe to warm you up after a cold day out in the mountains. We are looking forward to meeting you all in one of our two properties, Hakken and Active Life Madarao, for a winter you will never forget.

Hakken
Our family friendly 15 room pension Hakken is right next to the slopes with the possibility to ski in and out on a snowy day. It is right next to the ski area so you can max out your time on the mountain. No walking to the ski resort to start your day skiing and also easy to get back to after you are tired by all the skiing you and your legs did that day. After that you can hang out at our Whiskey bar to share your adventurous exploits of the day or just relax in our onsite onsen. Hakken is the perfect place for families because it is in a quiet alley next to the main road. Also people, whose main focus is skiing in deep Jpow, will appreciate the closeness to the resort and the quiet and cozy atmosphere of Hakken.
Our Inter resort shuttle
Not snowing or no fresh snow on the mountain, don’t worry it is always snowing somewhere close by in winter. That is the reason behind our inter resort shuttle, we will bring you to where the snow is to maximize your time in deep powder. Nozawa Onsen and Myoko are just a few of the places we will bring you with our inter resort shuttle. Go ahead and book accommodation with us and we make sure that you don’t miss out on any big drops of snow in the area.
