    「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.

    Iwate Hanamaki-shi Ishidoriyacho Tozuka 2-13-1

    花巻市石鳥谷の戸塚森公園という森林公園の横にあります。自然が沢山あり春の新緑や秋の紅葉時は最高に気持ちが良いです。山の中の割にはアップダウンが比較的少なく、グリーンも平坦なほうだと思います。初級中級者には楽しいゴルフ場です。

    沼宮内のやや小高い高原にあるゴルフ場です。36ホールあり、起伏も程よくあり、池も多くなかなか難しいゴルフ場です。新緑の美しい季節か紅葉の季節は最高に気持ち良いゴルフができます。お薦めです。

    Iwate Iwate-gun Shizukuishicho Nishine

    紅葉の始まりで岩手山の景観が素晴らしかった。から松コースを回ったがOUTは少し狭くまたトリッキーなホールもあり手強かった。グリーンもアンジュレーションが強く芝目も効いているので難しかった。フェアウェーは夏の暑さのせいでところどころ傷みが目立ったが、状態が良ければ良いコースかと思う。

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.
