Things to do in Sapporo Kokusai Ski Resort

I easily exchanged the barcode for a ticket at the counter and used it. Due to strong winds, the gondola wasn't operating, so I couldn't go up to the summit, but I still enjoyed the fresh powder from the heavy snowfall. It was a memorable ski trip.

The weather was great today, so I was able to ride the gondola, which I couldn't do yesterday due to strong winds! Kiroro is truly Kiroro! I'll definitely be back next year.

We took a half-day snowboarding lesson at Sapporo Kokusai Ski Resort, and our instructor, Shishi, was truly excellent. She was attentive and patient, clearly pointing out issues we had been trying to improve but couldn't quite grasp. The entire lesson had a comfortable pace, and her guidance was precise, allowing us to make significant progress and snowboard with much more confidence. We highly recommend Shishi!

I hadn't purchased tickets in advance due to the weather, but then I found out about Klook's 6-hour pass the day before and bought it. I received a QR code and exchanged it for a lift ticket at the information desk. It was interesting that our names were printed on the one-day lift tickets. If you don't have a lift ticket, you'll need to pay an additional 500 yen deposit per person to get one, which you can get back later. We just kept ours as a souvenir. The official website's 4-hour pass is 7,030 yen for adults and 3,705 yen for children after a 5% discount, but I think I got the 6-hour pass on Klook for a bit cheaper. We had a great time riding for the full 6 hours before heading back.

whoever would like to experience riding a snowboard it’s very recommended to join this trip!! the coach JJ is very professional and patience when teaching, he took care of us very well during the whole lesson. he also helping us to take photographs and videos. Definitely would look for him again for the next lesson in hokkaido!

Best to hire instructor if beginner. gear and wear rental is cheaper in klook with discounts. Kokusai staff will provide the suitable size

We booked a lesson at Hokkaido Kokusai Ski Resort and were paired with Coach Dayun. She was able to use her professional knowledge to teach us beginners different skiing techniques, and adjusted training goals based on the different levels of our group, providing improvement suggestions and encouragement. The whole course was full of success and joy, highly recommended! Here's a little personal advice, remember to wear padded shorts and knee pads, it won't hurt as much when you fall. 😁

An incredibly fun experience!! Coach Li Han is not only professional but also super attentive, considerate, and patient, making you feel safe and secure throughout the entire process. 👍 If I have the chance, I will definitely go back several more times.😁
