Setsu Stories

April is one of the more interesting months to be in Niseko allowing everyone to experience spring, summer, and winter all in one month.

March is a month of milder temperatures and clearer days, getting more chances of seeing the majestic Mt. Yotei, while still having enough snow to enjoy a day or two of spring skiing.

Enjoy a range of delicious, quick and easy options to choose from to refuel between runs. Setsu Niseko's team have compiled a list of our favourite options that are easy to access from the slopes.

For keen skiers, night skiing is an opportunity to spend more time on the slopes. For beginners, it is a chance to practice without the crowds and see the mountain in a whole new way.

Clearer days with still excellent snow conditions, February is an excellent month to experience the magic of Japan’s winter festivals happening in and around Niseko.

January is an exciting time in Niseko. While it is known to be the month when the heaviest storms hit the area, it is also the month that brings about the best and most powder dry snow that Niseko is known for – earning its nickname “Japanuary”.
