Ryuoo Ski Park : Powder Recon

Ryuoo Ski Park

Around 45 minutes by car from Akakura is Ryuoo Ski Park. It has a very good mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced terrain, as well as a high capacity ropeway that heads up the mountain every 20 minutes. The Kiotoshi area has great ungroomed steep slopes that will challenge the most advanced of riders, but there are plenty of good options all over the mountain for all levels.

The only way to access Ryuoo from Myoko is private vehicle, meaning that unless you are with powder Recon it is very difficult (or expensive) to get to.
