February is typically a busy time of year in Niseko, as more often than not the Lunar Chinese New Year falls in February. However, 2017 will be different as the holiday season will already be over before the end of the first week of the month, meaning the only lift lines you will see this February will be like the ones below.
The low February temperatures ensure the white stuff stays dry, light and fluffy, and the emergence of La Niña promises to deliver even more February snow than usual.
Another great reason to visit in February 2017 will be the Yuki Matsuri in Sapporo to be held from 6th-12th of the month. Why not make this fascinating event part of your travel itinerary? Sapporo is a pleasant train ride away, and a stop off on your way or way back at the bustling port city of Otaru is also a possibility.
Every year, the massive snow sculptures crafted by the Japan Self Defence Force in Sapporo’s Odori Park captivate thousands of visitors. In recent years, the impressive sculptures are brought to life with colour and sound as moving images are projected onto the grand works of art. A hotly contested international snow sculpting contest also takes place and attracts global media coverage.
