A hidden gem for 2026 Hokkaido ski experts! Book a one‑day Rusutsu Resort lift ticket plus a direct round‑trip bus from Sapporo — no need to drive or plan complicated logistics. Easily enjoy Hokkaido's largest all‑season resort. Rusutsu is located at the southeastern foot of Mount Yotei, with a得天独厚的 location that blocks the cold northwest wind while receiving clean snow from sea breezes. Combined with the sunny climate near the Pacific Ocean, it enjoys clear skies and fine, dry powder snow — a top ski destination locals call [THE DAY]. Snowfall continues from December to February, often leaving fresh snow layers on the slopes for an excellent skiing experience.

The ski area spans three peaks — West Mountain, East Mountain, and Isola Mountain — offering rich and diverse slopes that suit all skill levels. Families and beginners can choose the family routes in front of the hotel, which are wide, flat, and gentle in gradient, right next to the children's park — safe and convenient, making it the top choice for family snow play. Experienced skiers should not miss the ungroomed powder trails on West Mountain, where you can carve through quality powder after snowfall, enjoy beautiful curved snow lines, and unlock the thrill of off‑piste skiing.

The must‑visit scenic summit slopes are gentle and well‑graded, balancing skiing fun with sightseeing. On clear days, you can enjoy sweeping views of Lake Toya and Shikotsu‑Toya National Park with excellent layered scenery. Whether you are a beginner getting started, an intermediate refining your skills, or an advanced skier taking on challenges, this place has something for you. After skiing, explore the resort's diverse facilities and taste local specialties to unlock more winter fun beyond skiing.

Ride a comfortable direct round‑trip bus straight to the ski area, with one ticket covering all lift access and top‑quality powder snow. Leave behind the hassle of transport and planning, and experience the charm of Hokkaido's premium skiing in one go, creating unforgettable winter memories.
