Togakushi spreads over two mountains, Mt. Menou and Mt. Kenashi, with the jagged Togakushi range straight in front of the summit at 1,748 m. On a clear day the Northern Alps line the horizon and you can pick out Mt. Fuji.
Nineteen runs cover every level. Champion is the steepest. Mogul riders split their time between Challenge and the long bump line on Adventure. The Ninja Slope gives children a run of their own built on the area's ninja stories.
The restaurants serve Togakushi soba made from local buckwheat. Togakushi Shrine and its cedar-lined approach to the Okusha are close by, and the shrine is a place of living worship, so keep to the paths and respect any closures.
