Japow Retreat in Nozawa Onsen is a week where world-class powder skiing blends with the rhythm of a traditional mountain village. Over seven days, we freeride and tour with certified guides through Nozawa, Madarao, and Myoko, chasing untouched lines and sparkling forests, while off the mountain we soak in the village’s historic hot springs, stretch out with yoga, and share authentic Japanese meals in cosy izakayas. Nozawa lives and breathes its heritage, and everything here is walkable, from the lifts to the baths to the restaurants. This trip is about skiing some of the best snow on the planet and about immersing ourselves in the unique culture, recovery, and community that make Japow unforgettable.
