Tucked inside a sheltered valley on the Shakotan peninsula, Kiroro catches the full force of the Sea of Japan storms and turns them into twenty-one metres of fall-line japow per season, the highest official total in the country. North-facing slopes, light winds, no town to speak of: just two hotels, two mountains and an obsessive snowfall record.
Snow report FAQ
How fresh is the snow data?+
The current conditions and 7-day forecast are pulled from Open-Meteo (ECMWF, MeteoFrance, DWD and Met Norway models combined) and cached for 30 minutes. Numbers reflect conditions at the resort's latitude and longitude.
What does fresh snow mean?+
The amount of snow that has accumulated over the previous 24 hours, separate from the daily forecast for the next 7 days.
Why is current snow lower than the seasonal average?+
Snow depth varies day by day. Our seasonal average is an indicative monthly target based on altitude and historical reliability. The live number is what is actually on the slopes today.
