    Fukushima Pref. Yamagunkitashiobaramura Hibara Wild sand lot
    Visitors can enjoy skiing and snowboarding at GRANDECO SNOW RESORT during the season as well as being a place to experience three of the one hundred top mountains in Japan regardless of the season. Enjoy a spectacular view of Urabandai Plateau from the panorama gondola reaching an altitude of approximately 1400 meters. There are guided tours of the DECODAIRA Marshlands which located at 1320 meters above sea level is ideal as a trekking spot. It is approximately 30 minutes by car from Inawashiro-Bandaikogen Interchange on the Ban-etsu Expressway.

    I wrote an extensive review of the ski area under Grandeco ski area. So check that out. It’s only 1 word not 2.

    猪苗代スキー場は素晴らしい戦略企画をしているスキー場!平日リフト無料で行ってきましたが、ままスキー人口が集まっていて人気があります。ゲレンデも結構横に広くて滑りがいがあり飽きないですね。滑っている時の動画撮影、ワックストンネルなども現在無料で来客がまた来たくなる仕掛けが沢山あります! スキーレベルは、オールラウンドに対応しているゲレンデ。比較的中級者が楽しめると思います。
