From epic zip lines in the moutains to rafting and SUP on the rivers. The region proximate to SnowDog Village does not lack for things to do!
Snow rafting, snowmobiling, ski/snowboard lessons and snowshoeing are all on tap in during the winter months. All great for time with the family. Don’t forget the onsen!

Of course no list would be complete without referencing the ability to ride some of the best snow in the world.
SnowDog Village is a short drive from the main resort area in Hirafu. Hirafu is replete with gastronomic options. However, the inability to get a reservation combined with the crowds can become tedious.
SnowDog Village has you covered when it comes to food, so there is no need to stay in Hirafu.

A dog friendly izakaya on-site at SnowDog Village offers up classic Japanese fare and well-behaved dogs are welcome to join the family at dinner time!

The proprietors of SnowDog Village are always on the hunt for new ways to scratch that foodie itch. From food trucks to apres ski marshmallow roasts. There are options!

Staff at SnowDog would be happy to recommend a night out at a local hotspot. From the sublime at Rakuichi Soba to the simple sandwich at Sanroku Parlor.

Since SnowDog Village has fully equipped kitchens in all 1 bedroom apartments and above, sometimes a home cooked meal or DIY meal kit is just what hits the spot.
