DOG FRIENDLY NOZAWA ONSEN
Nozawa’s furry friends
If you’ve been riding in Nozawa you may have noticed that some of our star skiers and snowboarders happen to be dogs! They’re super speedy on the slopes and are always dressed for the weather with their boots and jackets. These rugged up dogs are a very cute addition to the Nozawa slopes.
The fog is still hanging around this morning but will hopefully lift mid day. We are in for a great day of skiing. Groomers will be the pick this morning with the spring slush being fast and fun in the afternoon. Hit the park early as well before the sun hits the slopes. It will be a balmy warm spring day with a max of 7 degrees on top of the mountain. Winds are light and variable from the NW, with the occasional stronger gust.
With the April school holidays approaching, it’s time to start thinking about where to take the family. We still have snow here in Nozawa during April and the cherry blossoms will start blooming in the village, the perfect destination for a spring holiday. We have some awesome deals on offer for the school holidays, ideal for families looking to snag a ski holiday before the summer hits Japan.
