Myoko Kogen Ski Areas: Webcams, Snow & Trail Maps

Myoko Kogen brings together Akakura Onsen, Ikenotaira, Suginohara and other snowy Niigata resorts. Compare cameras, conditions and access.

It is roughly two hours from Tokyo by Shinkansen and costs less than Niseko or Hakuba. Lodging clusters in the onsen town, and many ryokan have outdoor baths you can sit in while it snows.

The cameras show how differently Akakura Onsen and Suginohara accumulate: Suginohara sits higher and holds lighter snow, while Akakura is easier to reach from the valley.
