Skiing in Niseko
Niseko is a renowned skiing paradise. It is an awesome opportunity for children to ski in Niseko this spring, together with others of similar age who come from different parts of the world.

Niseko is a renowned skiing paradise and HIS Niseko promotes skiing throughout the winter months. HIS Niseko is proud to partner with Hokkaido Core to provide quality ski instruction to children attending the Spring Seasonal School. Hokkaido Core has over 25 years of teaching experience in Canada, USA, New Zealand and Japan and this winter they will bring in the best skiing experience for the children too!

Blue bird days with sunshine are more common in Spring and temperatures are usually higher. This is ideal time for families to visit Niseko. When children are off for the seasonal school, parents can enjoy skiing on their own too. In addition to accommodation savings of up to 30%, we also offer 10% equipment rental for parents!
