For skiers who like a single compact peak with a long cruise from the top, plus marked expert lines for stronger riders.
Iwatake is a standalone 1,289 m peak. Its 2025–26 map names 15 runs: 5 easy, 1 intermediate and 9 advanced, including the double-diamond View lines. Sunny Valley is the longest at 3.3 km.
Take the gondola from the base to the summit, then choose between Sunny Valley and the North, South, East and Hikage faces. The View and Sonezawa lines are expert terrain; unnamed links on the map are connectors, not runs.
