Heaps of intermediate groomers

Crowded as it is the only resort in the area
Very limited advanced options
Lift alignment is weird meaning some walking may be necessary
Can have limited snow so worth checking before making the trek.

Getting There

Most people make use of the high-speed train connection from Osaka, which is fast and relatively cheap. By rail from Osaka, the Sanyo Shinkansen service runs to Okayama, a 50-minute journey, from where the Yonago-bound express service runs on the Hakubi Line to Yonago. The 2 hour, 20 minute train ride is comfortable and buses meet the arrival of trains at Yonago Station for the 45-minute journey to Daisen ski resort.
