Hachikogen Ski Resort

ハチ高原スキー場
Off season Official site

Hachikogen Ski Resort is a ski area in Hyogo, Japan, on slopes between roughly 846 and 1,158 m. Its mapped area is about 1.9 km across, with 15 marked runs and 8 lifts (about 6.4 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 237 cm of snowfall a season, 210th of the 397 ski areas we measure in Japan. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2024/25 (348 cm), brought more than 6 times as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (51 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 81 cm. Snowfall days average −3.7 °C at mid-mountain, and its snow-quality score ranks 215th of 397 in Japan.

Below are links to 5 official live cameras.

The tick marks the median across every Japanese ski area we measure. All four bars run the same way — longer is better.

The quality score deliberately excludes how much snow falls — it uses temperature, frequency, rain and wind. Snowing a lot and snowing well are different things.

When it falls, and how winters differ

Month by month

Month by month, the most snow falls in January. March brings 42% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Japan (52%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 34 cm, less than the median of 46 cm.

Winter by winter

Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 237 cm, and 5 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2015/16 with 51 cm; the biggest was 2024/25 with 348 cm (6.8 times as much). For 63% of the 397 ski areas in Japan, the leanest winter was the same 2015/16: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
