Thanks for the kind words Saskia – always good to hear from someone who appreciates the site and what we do.
It’s late in the season so you probably won’t get the daily dumps that are famous in Dec, Jan & Feb, but there’s still plenty of snow around and some great turns to be had.
The other bonus of coming late in the season is the reduced numbers – Hirafu is not over-crowded anymore and the lift lines are non-existent =)
Hope you have a wonderful time while you are here – if there are any questions you have or any way we can help, don’t hesitate to ask.
Thanks again.
