A JOURNEY WITH ROOM TO BREATHE
Arai/Myoko's model plan. Connecting arrival, skiing, and enjoyment of the surrounding area. Please adjust the number of days and time allocation according to arrival time and traffic.
From Joetsu Myoko Station, take the reserved transportation to your accommodation. Check the equipment and course information for the next day, and adjust the rhythm of your trip by enjoying the hot springs and in-house meals.
Check the operation and open areas before heading to the mountain. Choose a course that suits your technique and shorten your plans if the weather changes. In the evening, we went to Hoshizora Onsen, and in the evening we went to the reserved meal.
Secure your transportation and head to Takada. Visit the castle ruins park and cultural facilities that are open, then have lunch in town. Return to Joetsu Myoko Station, looking at the road and train connections.
We will arrange the opening days of the facility, meals and transportation conditions for the accommodation, and transportation to and from the facility in advance. When it snows or the service is canceled, find ways to spend your time other than skiing. This is not a reserved product or a confirmed flight schedule.
Choose between staying within the Arai resort and using a base in Arai town or Takada. Akakura and Myoko Kogen are different locations; compare the ski area and daily transport before choosing your hotel.
Learn about the atmosphere of the destination from the scenery at the time of the photo shoot.
