Teine Ski Resort

Hokkaido, Japan

Sapporo Teine Ski resort is less than an hour away from Sapporo so can be great to visit if you want to spend a couple of nights checking out downtown Sapporo city and just doing a day trip to Teine. It is a medium sized resort, split into 2 sections Olympia and Highland. The Olympia section is best suited for beginners and lower intermediates, whereas the Highland section up top is where all the real action is. Great views of Sapporo city and the ocean prevail and the view on a fine day can be quite breathtaking. There are a couple of very steep courses leading from the top, one of which was used in the Sapporo Olympics. They will challenge you but beware, the most direct one "North Wall" has a tendency to be moguled. There are some nice tree runs in the Paradise Nature Zone. For those that have sufficient experience and training Teine has some incredible side country runs. The most exciting of these are found to the skiers right of the Summit express lift. Go with a qualified guide if you don't have sufficient avalanche training as with any uncontrolled course there can be high avalanche danger under the wrong conditions. Do not attempt this if visibity is poor as it is easy to get lost. Whilst going out of bounds is not permitted by the ski resort the patrol do not seem to enforce the policy very often. These are your options for guided tours that often go to Teine: • 2 day "Happy Ending" tour • 10 day Hokkaido Unplugged tour • 11 day Ultimate powder tour" tour
