Shinkansen-ticket.com Launches "Japan Ski Guide 2026-2027" for International Skiers and Snowboarders

Tokyo, Japan - August 26, 2026 -
Shinkansen-ticket.com, an online Shinkansen and railway ticket booking service for international travelers visiting Japan, has launched its new "Japan Ski Guide 2026-2027," a dedicated guide designed to help overseas visitors discover ski and snowboard resorts across Japan and understand how to reach them by train.

Japan is home to world-renowned powder snow, diverse ski areas, hot spring towns, and resorts suitable for everyone from beginners and families to experienced skiers and snowboarders. However, for international visitors, choosing a winter destination - and understanding how to get there from Tokyo or other major cities - can sometimes be complicated.

Starting this year, Shinkansen-ticket.com has created a dedicated Japan Ski Guide to introduce the appeal of Japan's ski and snowboard destinations and provide clear information about railway access, helping more international travelers discover and enjoy winter in Japan.

## Discover Ski & Snowboard Resorts Across Japan

The **Japan Ski Guide 2026-2027** introduces 17 winter destinations across Nagano, Niigata, Tohoku, and Hokkaido, including popular areas such as Hakuba, Nozawa Onsen, Shiga Kogen, GALA Yuzawa, Myoko, Zao, Appi Kogen, Niseko, Furano, and Tomamu.

Travelers can explore destinations based on their interests and travel style, including:

* Beginner, intermediate, and advanced slopes
* Powder snow
* Skiing and snowboarding
* Family-friendly resorts
* Onsen (hot springs)
* Easy access from major cities
* Day-trip options

The guide also shows the main gateway station and transportation options for each destination, making it easier to compare resorts and plan a winter trip in Japan.

## Japan's Ski Resorts Are Closer Than You Think

Many of Japan's ski and snowboard destinations are easily accessible by Shinkansen and other railway services. For example, GALA Yuzawa can be reached from Tokyo in as little as approximately 75 minutes, while Nagano Station - the gateway to many popular resorts in Nagano Prefecture - is approximately 90 minutes from Tokyo by Shinkansen.

The guide also provides practical information for winter travelers, including traveling on the Shinkansen with skis and snowboards and railway ticket options.

Through the new Japan Ski Guide, Shinkansen-ticket.com aims to make Japan's winter destinations easier to discover and access, and to help more travelers from around the world experience Japan's winter season.
