Snow was beautiful, very good price, can't recommend enough!

Had a skiing incident which resulted in a hospital trip. Staff were absolutely amazing and helped to translate all of our conversation to Japanese.

I will be returning here in the coming years!

Perfect snow day trip
Feb 2020
Actually not even a day trip, from Sapporo station you get there in less than an hr. There are several ways and times you can go to the resort during the day. Went there a few times 2019/.20 season.

The night pass is for the lower side of the mountain, so its not as fun as the morning. but great for beginners!

one of the cheapest lift tickets around sapporo, and snow on the highland side is pretty good!

Never-Skied-Before!
Feb 2020 • Family
TEINE OLYMPIA SKI SCHOOL. Perfect place for someone who has never skied before! We started at 10am and left after sunset. Complete gear rental, and progressive lessons. We learned about the parts of the gear and how to use them; we moved to gentle slopes and how to control our skis. Later we transferred to a bunny slope with a “ski walkalator” for more practice. Eventually we rode a gondola that took us much higher, to a long scenic beginners’ route! Our English speaking Instructress Wakana, is wonderful! She was so patient with us. I moved ahead to stay with my teenager sons, only because I felt confident leaving my slightly unsteady wife in Wakana’s safe hands. It was a wonderful comprehensive and fun First Time Ever!

TIP: after the lessons, since we already had our ski gear, we continued skiing until sunset, paying only for the lifts 👍🏻

Icy Conditions & Grass
Dec 2019 • Family
We were at Teine on Dec 26. Ski season opens Nov 22; so we thought snow conditions should be very good. I guess it wasn’t a good year for snow. We saw grass. And there were many icy patches. The conditions were disappointing but sometimes Mother Nature doesn’t feel like cooperating.

We skied at Teine Olympia and not the Highland. The runs are long but much too flat. Be prepared to push through those flat areas. It’s almost like cross-country skiing. Quite a work-out. There were lots of little kids taking group lessons; so if you’re a beginner, it’s a good place to be.

The queue to pay and collect the equipment was disorganized. A women fitting the boots and skis couldn't converse well in English and called for help. The majority of the ski boots were rear-entry boots. I’m not a fan. I asked for front-entry boots. Got them. Told her, it was too big. She refused to give me another pair. All out. For safety, boots need to fit well. There’s lack of care for the customer sadly.

The hills and lifts are quite spread out. So coming down some slopes will require long walks to transfer to different lifts or long walks to the canteen for lunch.

Lockers are expensive y600, y400. Place your boots on the shelf like others.

From Sapporo station, it was an easy train ride to Teine station plus one bus ride. Just about an hour.

First Time Skiing
Feb 2019 • Family
A great introduction to skiing and snow sledding for the kids! My two grandchildren aged 4 and 9 and my grown son of 27 with elder brother aged 40 enjoyed themselves immensely. Only my 40 year old is experienced in skiing in the US and he was able to give his brother, his 4 year old son, and niece lessons that made them enjoy the sport, wanting for more. We returned the next day for more skiing. First day was in the Dinosaur beginner course and the next day was in the higher slope.

really good for beginner
Feb 2019
the beginner courses are long and flat (olympic area with one 1.7km but sorry i forgot the name) which give a great chances to practice. there are several courses that suitable for beginner but still advice to hire a coach if you are lack of experience

great location close to Sapporo
Feb 2019 • Couples
visiting the Ice Festival, we wanted to get in a day of skiing as well. It takes about 15 minutes by train and another 15 by bus to get to Teine. They have a reasonable number of runs for all skill levels.

Olympia seemed clogged by a ton of ski school participants, so we went up to Highlands; I enjoyed the short green runs, although they were challenging enough for me. The more advanced runs were a bit icy and the cold wind was not fun anywhere.

They have a transportation / lift ticket package, but it looks like it picks up / drops off only once a day from several hotels By taking the train/bus ourselves, we got an extra hour of sleep but still had plenty of time to ski. As for the bus, on weekdays, it too is not convenient, returning every other hour in the evening to the train station. Be aware that not everyone may fit on the bus, so you'd best get there early and queue up, otherwise it's a two hour wait for the next one ! (bus is 370yen; taxi is about $25 but I don't think you can cram in 6 people !) I'm not sure if the shortage of transport is common or just due to the timing of Chinese New Year and the Ice Festival.

Staff for rental equipment was helpful with the conversions of sizes and weight; equipment is pretty standard. They have several packages, so I'd suggest checking out their website in advance. It is well organized with the information you might need.

There is a cafeteria with several kinds of foods and pretty reasonably priced.

Decent location, decent runs, reasonably priced.
