Cat Skiing Around Niseko

Do you want to experience Japan’s Powder away from the resort without the work of long touring days? Then Cat Skiing in Japan with the Niseko based Hokkaido Backcountry Club is the answer to your untracked powdery dreams.

Cat Skiing in Japan at our two locations (Shimamaki and Chisenupuri) offers anything from intermediate to advanced terrain and single day trips to 4 day packages. Chisenupuri is a day trip located just outside of Niseko in the town of Rankoshi (about a 15min drive from Hirafu). Chisenupuri is suited for skiers and snowboarders from intermediate to advanced levels. Shimamaki is a multi-day trip which is located about 2 hours from Niseko where you can not only enjoy powder skiing but also an authentic experience. You will be staying at a local hot spring accommodation with some delicious seafood for dinner. This tour is suited for advanced to expert skiers and snowboarders.

We also offer private customized cat skiing holidays built to meet your exact needs. If you would like to combine this with heli skiing, backcountry tours, or resort tours please let us know! The one thing all of our packages have in common is ending your day with a giant smile after an uncountable amount of face shots.

All of our trips are designed to let you enjoy your cat skiing experience without having to worry about any of the small details. We will give you a full Japanese experience with a traditional lunch or dinner, onsens, and transportation to and from the Niseko area. All you need to worry about is keeping your legs strong for deep powder skiing.
