Introduction

Iizuna Resort is a ski area located in Iizuna Town in the northern region of Nagano Prefecture.

The ski area is on the eastern slopes of Mt Iizuna, north of Nagano City and south of the ski areas of Myoko in Niigata Prefecture.

Iizuna Resort has one 1719m quad lift and two pair lifts, and a run with a steepest gradient of 40 degrees. Towards the top of the mountain, the snow on a few runs usually is left ungroomed.

The lower area is usually open for floodlit night skiing Tuesdays through Saturdays in the main season.

The bobsleigh and luge events of the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics were held at the Spiral facility, about 6km south of Iizuna Resort.

The Iizuna Kogen ski area was about 4km away, but unfortunately, it permanently closed a few years ago. More information about Iizuna Kogen can be found on SnowJapanHistory here.
