For skiers who want very long, mostly easy-to-intermediate descents rather than steep pitches.
Suginohara drops 1,124 m from 1,855 m to 731 m. Half of its 16 runs are easy and only two are advanced; the longest route runs 8.5 km. Super Giant is the steepest at 38°.
Ride the Suginohara Gondola from the base, then the Mitahara high-speed lifts higher up. Trace one continuous line back to the gondola base before you set off, as the full descent is long.
