About
Madarao Kogen and the linked Tangram Ski Circus form one connected resort straddling the Nagano and Niigata prefecture border in central Japan. The pairing offers 45 courses on about 14 chairlifts, and the Sea of Japan dumps roughly 14 meters of light snow on it each winter. More than half the runs are left ungroomed, and Madarao's tree runs are among the largest selection of marked glades in the country.
