Day Excursion to Shiga Hakodateyama Fun Ski Resort
✨ Highlights
A private day trip in your own Toyota Alphard with driver: hotel pickup in Osaka or Kyoto, then Mount Hakodate Ski Resort. About 12 hours on this route, priced per car for up to 6 guests. You enter your hotel (or a station) and the pickup time in the booking form.
The car price does not include a guide, entry tickets, rides, experiences, meals, tolls or parking.
Hakodateyama Ski Resort blends man-made and natural snowfall in a family-oriented setting within easy reach of Osaka. The resort spans separate zones for snow play and skiing, with reliably groomed terrain for beginners through advanced riders. A dedicated "PLAY ZONE" keeps younger guests entertained. Cable car rides showcase Lake Biwa's winter beauty across the Kansai landscape. Visitors booked on the Snow Play + Sightseeing Package spend roughly 2.5 hours here before transferring by vehicle to the Lake Biwa Metasequoia Tree-lined Road and Makino Highland Onsarasa.
The Metasequoia Tree-lined Road runs along Shiga Prefectural Road Kooroji Makinosawa Line for approximately 2.4 kilometers. Around 500 metasequoia trees frame this straight passage toward Makino Highlands, with the Nosaka Mountain Range forming a dramatic backdrop that amplifies the sense of scale and serenity.
Makino Highland Onsarasa operates separately. Two main bath facilities—Dodan and Fuurin—each accommodate up to 50 bathers. Additional options include a 15-person soak, cascade bath, seasonal cool-water bath, reclining tub, Jacuzzi, and large shared bath. Every section provides an open-air hot spring overlooking Akasaka Mountain Range and manicured gardens, allowing bathers to absorb mountain vistas while remaining secluded.
