Nozawa Onsen trail map guide

Who it suits

Useful for a mixed-ability group that wants room to explore: the resort lists 43 courses, and the long top-to-village route passes through several distinct areas.

Terrain to know

The 10 km longest descent runs from the top through Yamabiko, Uenotaira, Paradise and Rinkan. Upper red runs and lower green traverses make route choice as important as the headline distance.

How to read this map

Locate your return base first: Hikage, Nagasaka and Karasawa sit at different points along the bottom. Then trace the green Uenotaira–Paradise corridor or a steeper Yamabiko route toward that base.
