Jiigatake Snow Resort

Jiigatake 爺ヶ岳

Omachi 大町

Omachi family hill at the far south of the pass. The all-mountain pass is valid, but the IC card often needs exchanging at the window. Treat it as a curiosity day, not your base.

Good for

  • family with a car
  • You’ve got the all-mountain pass and want a quiet extra day (with a car)

Watch-outs

  • Valley pass is valid, but you often swap the IC card at the window — ask when you buy.
  • English information is thin. Official pages are mostly Japanese.

Shuttle: Do not plan a no-car day from Happo. Drive or skip.
