Niseko United trail map guide

Who it suits

Good for a group with different abilities planning several days on one mountain: Niseko United joins Annupuri, Niseko Village, Grand Hirafu and Hanazono.

Terrain to know

The four base areas offer different ways up the mountain. Grand Hirafu alone lists gentle Family and Holiday courses alongside steeper upper runs such as Super and Onsenzawa.

How to read this map

Find your starting base along the bottom edge, then trace its lifts upward before choosing a descent. The green, red and black symbols distinguish easier, harder and most difficult runs; do not assume a route into another area is open today.
