Kawaba Ski Resort, celebrating its 35th anniversary, invests 200 million yen in artificial snow machines to create stable ski slopes
Early bird ticket sales start from October 1st!
Kawaba Ski Resort, operated by Kawaba Resort Co., Ltd. (location: Kawaba Village, Tone District, Gunma Prefecture, President: Masaya Matsui), a member of the Japan Ski Resort Development Co., Ltd. group, has installed a new artificial snow machine costing a total of 200 million yen. Masu.
It is a facility where you can enjoy excellent access, approximately 2 hours by car from the Tokyo metropolitan area, and some of the best snow quality in the Kanto region.From beginners to experts, it is a facility where you can enjoy the longest run distance of 3.3 km and 10 courses.
Total price: 200 million yen Six new artificial snow machines will be installed from the 24-25 season
By installing a total of 19 snowboards, 6 new from the 1.2km Crystal Course from the summit, we aim to open the Top to Bottom 3.3km course in mid-December, in response to the lack of snow and without waiting for natural snow.
Kawaba Ski Resort Crystal Course will introduce a super pole cat tower type in order to take full advantage of the high altitude of 1,870m, which is one of the best artificial snowfall environments in the Kanto region. With the Super Pole Cat Tower Type, snow falls from a 6m tall (standard type) tower, which allows for a long stay in the air and a high cooling effect, making it possible to create large quantities of high-quality snow. The oscillator (oscillator) allows snow to fall over a wide area, making it easier to maintain the slopes after the snow has finished falling, and reducing the burden on snow-clearing vehicles.
In addition, the heavy oil consumption of snow machines has been reduced by 22% compared to conventional methods. It also leads to a reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and contributes to the SDGs.

Various contents are available to commemorate the 35th anniversary
To commemorate the 35th anniversary this year, a new Kawaba motif has been introduced.
We received comments from public device, who designed not only the pamphlets and posters but also the interior of the museum.
[Designer comment]
Kawaba Resort is easily accessible from the Tokyo metropolitan area and attracts many highly sensitive visitors. I have always had a strong image of being stylish and extreme, and the main visual for the 35th anniversary that I created this time is a little different from last year's hardcore atmosphere, and was designed with a pop feel that would be accepted by a wide range of age groups. I received it.
We are currently planning original goods and events to commemorate the 35th anniversary. Please look forward to Kawaba Ski Resort reaching a new milestone!
