Anbi Plateau Ski Resort Introduction
Anbi Plateau is located in Hatahira City, Iwate Prefecture, in northeastern Japan. It combines skiing, resorts, dining, and hot spring facilities. For travelers who want to spend several days skiing in the same location, they can combine their practice sessions with post-class rest into the same itinerary, reducing the need to switch accommodation locations each day.
Ski-in／Ski-out Ski resort accommodation
To allocate more time for skiing, it is recommended to prioritize hotels that allow for both in-and-out skiing, reduce the daily transportation arrangements to the ski resort, and make it convenient to return to the hotel after class.
Go with your child, plan according to the level of their development
Before deciding on the course duration and whether to group students, a family should first determine each member's age and ski experience to avoid the learning rhythm being affected by differences in physical strength and level of experience.
Transferring from Morioka to the ski resort
You can travel to Anbi Plateau from Soromachi by bus. In winter, bus, rail, and local shuttle services have different schedules and reservation requirements. It is recommended to confirm transportation arrangements before scheduling class time.
Traffic schedules and facilities are subject to change based on the season and the actual situation on the day.View Anby transportation information ↗
