Just a few minutes from the main station of Echigo Yuzawa, but hidden in it's own wide space, the ski resort is located directly behind the impressive NASPA New Otani hotel, and is perfectly suited to families, beginners and intermediate skiers.

Regular shuttle buses run between Echigo Yuzawa Station to NASPA New Otani Resort. There is also a direct shuttle bus between NASPA Ski Garden and the well-known ski and snowboard resort, GALA Yuzawa ( 5 minutes ).

Pit Inn is located right on the slopes of Iwappara Ski Area ( popular with both skiers and snowboarders ). Pit Inn is well-known for the special live jazz events held there frequently in the winter season.

Enjoy a good selection of quality food at Pit Inn this winter after a day on the slopes. You can literally come out of Pit Inn and ski or snowboard from the front!

Pit Inn has a wide selection of liquors and local sake in the bar for you to enjoy. Enjoy a fun weekend on the slopes and at Pit Inn this winter!
