Authentic Japanese village with lots of onsens, good variety of ski runs for all abilities, half pipe and snow park. Good choice of restaurants, some still walk in available. Fresh snow while we were there significantly improved our experience.

Fantastic little old school village with amazing food options for all tastes and enough skiing to keep you interested for a week. Really friendly locals and the onsen's were fantastic.

Onsen eggs were particularly good as well as the steamed Nikuman buns which I've had to learn to make since returning.

Fourth season that we have been to Nozawa Onsen. We love the place! A traditional Japanese town with lots of charm and friendly locals. Close to the slopes. Unfortunately there were no dumps while we were there so no fresh pow this year, but still good boarding and skiing.
