The Niseko BC Guide app is all about the pursuit of untouched powder in lift-assisted backcountry terrain. Let the Niseko BC Guide app show you the way to the best Niseko powder stashes!

Niseko is a skiing mecca in Hokkaido, Japan that is renowned for having some of the lightest and deepest powder in the world. I once saw a report at Niseko describe conditions as “ridiculously deep and dry with pluming faceshots”. And with a staggering average of 15m snowfall per season, it was pretty much just another (epic powder) day at Niseko.

Niseko provides some of the most accessible steep backcountry terrain in Japan. Just a 20 minute hike to the Niseko peak from the top chair earns you 360 degree access to the entire Niseko Annupuri mountain. While Niseko is far from undiscovered, the huge easily accessible backcountry areas help spread out the crowds and ensure fresh powder lines - if you know where to look.

Whether you’re heading to Niseko for the first time or as a seasoned Japowderhound, the Niseko BC Guide app can help you explore the vast backcountry terrain and seek out the best hidden powder stashes of Niseko Annupuri.

The Niseko BC Guide app features an interactive map with topographic contour lines and highlighted backcountry zones (accessible from each gate) allowing you to pinpoint your location with GPS to beat the hordes and seek out untouched powder lines. Once the app is downloaded the interactive map will run without a network connection using only GPS.
