5:55 AM. While many people are still dreaming in their beds, the ski lifts have already started operating on the snowy mountains. "Too early?" No!! This is the signal to fully enjoy "Spring NEKOMA." Open from 7:30 AM on weekdays, and from 5:55 AM on weekends and holidays!? The start of early morning operations means that far from the season ending, it's proof that the "real fun" has begun! For those of you feeling sad that "this season is over...", it's still too early for the season to end!!! After enjoying the spring slushy snow at NEKOMA Mountain (North Area), be sure to stop by the shop. #NEKOMAMountain #MorningNEKOMA #555 #CURIOUSISM #Fukushima

I had a day off today⁡ Another day off at NEKOMA Mountain🐱 I took my second son to a powder festival🏮, possibly the last one of the season⁡ My eldest son and his friend, who were returning from Ishigaki Island, and one of his acquaintances from Iwate, all came from all over Fukushima to join us🤣 So, five of us skied together😊 The tree run course on the south side was fun~ My sons made the last run of the day at the park! We even got a nostalgic photo of the father-son train (he got left behind...lol)📹 My eldest son is still in shape🤣 (goggles and gloves are just for decoration, lol)⁡ My thighs are so swollen😅⁡ I might not be able to snowboard this month...⁡ If there's still snow left in April, let's go snowboarding! It's too early for the season to end like this, and I haven't gotten used to my new board yet💦⁡ Souvenirs from the north and south😊 Thanks for the treat!⁡ #NEKOMAMountain #TreeRunCourseIsFun #SnowboardingFatherAndSon

Three days of fun at NEKOMA 🏂 I usually crawl around on the ground, but for once, I was flying around a lot 🏂 Lol We all did kicker training, powder (lol) and tree runs, and it felt like I really enjoyed snowboarding after a long time 😁 It was especially the first time someone filmed me following the kicker while we were flying together, so I was super nervous, but happy 🤣 Lol 🎥 Thank you, takashi67nagayama 🙇‍♂️ I want to be a filmmaker who can film kickers like that ✨ I've got a long way to go if I'm scared at 7 or 8 meters, though... 😮‍💨 Lol Thank you to everyone who came along for the ride 🙌 It's been so much fun trying different ways with different people lately 🏂 I think my snowboarding fever is starting to rekindle...🔥 #snowboarding #nekomamountain #graduating from being a grappler...? #leisureboarder #wherethepowdergoes...lol

90's★RETRO SKI GIRLS TRIP⛷️❄️ We went on a girls' trip with Bandaisan Onsen Hotel by Hoshino Resorts' popular plan, "90's★Retro Ski Trip" 🫶! The ski resort was Hoshino Resorts NEKOMA Mountain ⛰️🐈‍⬛ I was really looking forward to it because it was a slope I'd never been to before 🥰 nekoma.mountain This plan lets you rent colorful, pop 90's ski wear! ⛷️ We all had fun choosing our outfits, borrowing accessories like hair turbans and sunglasses, and skiing in a slightly different outfit than usual! ♡♡ It's hard to get used to wearing everything 90's, so we went all out and dressed colorful 💪 lol On the first day, we decided to go all out and try it for the first time in 10 years? We even tried skiing! 🎿 The way we skied was so 90s-like, it was amazing! 😂 We also had a great time at the hotel after skiing! ✨ This time, we got a special stay at the Aizu Modern Suite, where we enjoyed Snack Paradise in our room, developed some of the emotional photos we took with the digital camera included in the plan, and wrote our diary entries. 😂♡ Of course, we also enjoyed a soak in the hot springs, which was incredibly refreshing! 🧖‍♀️ And the food this time was absolutely amazing! From the buffet at the hotel restaurant, kisse kisse, to the authentic burgers at The Rider's on the slopes, to the crepes at yamacafe, to the matcha at Aizu Megu Road, it was a delicious and fun trip! 🤤 I want to ski and snowboard! But I also want a more special experience than usual! For those times, I highly recommend this 90's★Retro Ski Trip! ✨ I want to go again! 🥺 Be sure to check it out! 📍Hotel: Bandaisan Onsen Hotel by Hoshino Resorts🏔️Ski Resort: Hoshino Resorts NEKOMA Mountain🎿Plan Name: 90's ★ Retro Ski Trip ~~ ...

Girls' snowboarding trip at Bandaisan Onsen Hotel by Hoshino Resorts 👭✨ I stayed at this hotel while taking part in the women-only jibing competition Uninvited held in early February 🌟 The food was delicious, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the hot springs were warm ♨️ And best of all, the convenience of being adjacent to NEKOMA Mountain, where you can ski in and ski out, was fantastic 🥹 It was colder than usual and quite a tough 3 days, but I was able to enjoy it to the fullest because I was able to recharge my energy every day at the hotel ⚡️ This was my second time staying here, following last year, and it was really comfortable, with space to work in peace, and I was once again reminded of how wonderful and comfortable it is 💞 It's a must when you go skiing at NEKOMA Mountain! This is a highly recommended hotel 🏃‍♂️‍➡️ I hope the photos convey at least some of its charm ✨ #NEKOMAMountain #PR #Mt.BandaiOnsenHotel #HoshinoResorts #hoshinoresorts 🧢 haewear haewear_jap sobue_industry_sportsdivision

Perfect day for skiing. The snow scenery is amazing 👍 #skiing #skiresort #nekomamountain #urabandai #snowscenery

The weather was amazing on January 2nd ☀️ It was cold and the snow was light and fluffy ❄️ I approached Peak 1 on foot from the Frost Chair 🦶 I remembered that there used to be a lift here too 🚠 I enjoyed the scenery and the feeling of being on a private slope 🏂 #snowboarding #snowboard #nekomamountain

Our second ride started in the south area. 🏂 There wasn't much snow, but we managed to ski almost every run. 😄 It was freezing cold, so we went to the north area on Nyarutzu but quickly returned. 💦 On the way back, we got our boards painted at the pop-up store, and my wife was thrilled. ❤️ In the afternoon, we had lively music at the DJ booth. 🎸 If only there was more snow, it would be amazing! 👍 #snowboarding #snowboarding #nekomamountain #snowboard

Jun Jun Snowboard School is now open for the 25-26 season! Thank you to all the customers who attended on the first day of school, even though it was a beautiful sunny day with clear blue skies!
