Myoko

Myoko is best known within Niigata Prefecture for its snow-country ski resorts on the slopes of Mount Myoko. This 2,454-metre stratovolcano rises above the Myoko Kogen highlands, where Akakura Onsen, Ikenotaira and Myoko Suginohara make winter sport central to local life. The mountain stands within Myoko-Togakushi Renzan National Park, a protected area extending toward Nagano Prefecture. Hot-spring inns are an established part of the resort culture, providing a quieter counterpoint to the ski season. In warmer months, hiking routes and forest roads draw attention to the volcanic terrain and highland vegetation.
