Madarao is situated in the northern area of Nagano Prefecture, where weather conditions are consistently ideal for creating an endless supply of high-quality snow throughout our December-to-March season. Skiers and snowboarders return here again and again to experience the spectacular scenery, varied terrain and incredible selection of 30 groomed and ungroomed runs, which jumps to 45 runs including Tangram Resort, connected to Madarao.

We have frequent visitors from Australia, China, Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, New Zealand, Malaysia, the UK and the USA, who jump at the chance to experience some of the very best powder and tree skiing in the world. With Madarao's close proximity to Tokyo, you can get checked in and get skiing within 24 hours of your arrival into Japan!
