    「玄人好み」のスキー場(ゲレンデ)という表現が一番しっくりくるかも。雪質(安比、田沢湖より)がパウダー、斜面が面白い、やや人里離れている、アフターに至近距離にいい温泉がある、昭和のリフトがまだある、リフト料金が昭和の値段。第1リフトで滑走可能なスラロームバーンは面白いが、そこだけだと飽きるので、第2リフトを使おうとすると、いかんせん、遅くて長い。だから、寒い。フード付き高速リフトやゴンドラに慣れて...

    Iwate Pref. Kitakamishi Wagachouiwasakishinden
    This is a ski resort in Kitakami City Iwate Prefecture. The resort has one of the richest snowfalls in the Tohoku region and skiers can enjoy a long season of powder snow. Every year many visitors come to the resort from both within and outside the prefecture. There are a total of 14 unique slopes. For skiers who love powder snow we recommend the non-compacted snow course where the best powder snow can be enjoyed during snowy weather. There is a food court which offers a wide selection such as curry and ramen noodles rental shops and a childcare facility. Also there is a large outdoor natural hot spring bath called the “Usagimori no yu” and it is pleasing to have many facilities in one complex.

    女子ゴルフも始まりましたが、盛岡近郊には個性豊かなゴルフ場が沢山。なかでも盛岡駅から一番近くにあるゴルフ場は盛岡ハイランド。車で20分、都会人には考えられない時間距離感です。ゴルフ場は緑緑緑。ここのコースは長くて、グリーンが早いのが特徴。気持ちは渋野日向子なんですが、ゴルフは人生。いつも遊ばれます。今回は若いカモシカにも会いました。自然の中で遊ぶ週末ゴルフは最高です。

Iwate Areas

around-area-map

A northern Tohoku prefecture promising peace and quiet, Iwate is sparsely populated, replacing people with snow-capped mountains, history-rich sites, and fields of crops that are to thank for the region’s delicious local cuisine. Meander along the three-city Golden Route, where you’ll visit the grand Buddhist temples of Hiraizumi and the Tono folk villages before tasting the three famed noodle dishes of Morioka.
