Best Skiing in Japan in April
April is spring skiing: soft snow in the afternoon, firm in the morning. High-altitude and glacier resorts are the safe bets as lower resorts start to close.
Easter weeks are busy; the rest of the month is quiet, and many resorts discount passes and lodging.
Top resorts in Japan for April snow
25 resorts in Japan are open in April with at least 30 cm of typical snow depth. Ranked 60% on snow depth, 20% on top elevation and 20% on piste kilometres.
