Appi, Japan's Best Ski Resort 2022 and 2023 Rated by World Ski Awards, is located in Iwate Prefecture, the northern part of the main island of Japan. It is approximately 50 minutes from the city of Morioka, which was ranked #2 on the New York Times travel list for 2023. Morioka is approximately 130 minutes from Tokyo by Shinkansen bullet train. The resort is also approximately 90 minutes from Hanamaki, the hometown of MLB player Shohei Ohtani.
The conference hotel is ANA Crowne Plaza Resort APPI Kogen. The reservation site will open later in 2024.
A high-end alternative:
ANA Intercontinental APPI Kogen Resort (2024 World Luxury Hotel Award, MICHELIN One Key )
With 850 acres of skiable terrain, APPI is one of the largest ski resorts in Japan, including 21 runs serviced by 5 lifts & 1 gondola, totaling 43,100 m of gliding distance. There are also six tree-run zones. Appi Kogen is located next to Hachimantai, Japan’s largest frost-covered tree area at 40 degrees north latitude, and boasts a course layout centered on north-facing slopes. You can fully enjoy the finest “powder snow” with low humidity due to this blessed location. From ANA Crowne Plaza Resort Appi Kogen, ANA InterContinental Appi Kogen Resort, and ANA Holiday Inn Resort Appi Kogen, you can go to the slopes in 0 minutes.
Our conference got a great deal on the lift pass! The daily pass is about 50 USD compared to about 300 USD in major US ski resorts. Ski/snowboard set rentals are also available for about 50 USD/day.
