Nozawa Onsen Live Cameras

Nozawa Onsen live cameras from Yamabiko at the summit to the Hikage base, 1,085 m lower.

Nozawa Onsen runs from a 1,650 m summit to a 565 m base, 1,085 m of vertical. The village is often in rain while Yamabiko is in a blizzard, so compare cameras at different heights.

2026-27 season: opening Sat, November 28 (source: resort site, checked October 27). Early-season period November 28 to December 18; the opening festival is on December 19.

Cameras are expected to come back online when the season starts (opening: Sat, November 28). Some cameras stream all year: press play to try one.

Cameras: Nagasaka Slope (still image), Yamabiko Slope (still image), Uenotaira Slope (still image).

Nagasaka Slope: Last seen 2026-11-07; Yamabiko Slope: Last seen 2026-11-07; Uenotaira Slope: Last seen 2026-11-07.

Elevation: summit 1,650m, base 565m (source: resort's official site).

Snow depth and the 7-day snowfall forecast are weather-model values for the resort's location.

Yamabiko (upper mountain): The summit area around 1,500 m, and the first camera to check for powder, tree runs, visibility and wind.

Utopia / Paradise (mid-mountain): The broad middle slopes. When the top is blown out, check here to see whether the day is still worth skiing.

Hikage / Nagasaka (base): The gondola base on the village side. Shows the rain-snow line and how long the lift queues are.

Always compare a top and a bottom camera. Over 1,085 m of vertical you can have snow and rain on the same day.

If the summit view is a white sheet first thing, the practical plan is to start mid-mountain and wait for visibility.

Village streets ice over at night; the base cameras also tell you what the road surface is doing.

How many cameras does Nozawa Onsen have? This page lists every feed we can confirm is streaming. The count changes as the resort switches cameras on and off.

Is the snow different at the base and the summit? Very. With 1,085 m of vertical, rain at the village and dry snow at the top happens often.

Can I see the onsen village itself? The base-side cameras show the weather and road conditions at the bottom. They do not show the public bath houses.
