THE NEW SKI CITY ASAHIKAWA
Hitting the slopes?
Why not try a city stay
Skiing in Hokkaido’s a lot of fun, that part’s a given.
But when you start adding up food, hotel fees, and resort fees,
well...What about staying inside the city? The price is surprisingly reasonable!
With the same budget, you could have a longer and more enjoyable stay.
Hit those ski slopes in Asahikawa this winter
and enjoy everything the ski city has to offer!
