What other travelers are saying about Furano Ski Resort
overall a pretty good place to ski at with some important considerations. generally better for strong beginner skiers and onwards from my experience, although complete beginners can have a good time too, though with relative more effort definitely. came with my girlfriend who is new to skiing, there are 2 bunny slopes here, 1 seems to only be accessible if you have lessons (not sure how strict this is) and the other is free for all, although the latter isn't as good as the entrance to this bunny isn't as well maintained, making it a bit too steep and narrow as well for beginners to access comfortably.
i started skiing in europe and was surprised by the difference in difficulty standards of the slopes here, the greens in japan are more similar to the blues in europe from my experience and so on and forth. for example one of the greens in furano side had an average slope angle of 20 degrees with the max being 25 degrees, contrasting to Europe's average of 10-15 degrees from my experience.
slopes are also well maintained and not too crowded, the price of a full day ski pass here is more affordable and very worth it. food options are however limited and very crowded, so i suggest bringing your own food for lunch instead
the views here are simply immaculate too.. and the night skiing was well maintained and very fun as well, with way less people on the slopes 😉

Amazing Snow Quality and Wide Slopes
The snow quality was soft, deep, and perfect for both skiing and snowboarding. The slopes are wide and enjoyable.
One thing to note: check the daily slope openings and lift operating times
Great resort with friendly staff and ample facilities. It would have been good if they groomed some trails better but overall excellent skiing and beautiful scenery all around.
What a great place to rake the whole damily and enjoy some amazing snow on the mtn. We love this place 5 stars. I will come back here every year if I can.
Rubbish!!!! We had waited over 45 mins for the ropeway… this is because they let the ski/snowboard schools to have priority to get into the car first. So it’s always half full for the students already!!! This is very unfair! We also paid for the entrance ticket. It’s not like we are the free riders. 😡😡😡😡😡
