Akakura Kanko confirms 19 December opening

Akakura Kanko Resort will open on Saturday, 19 December 2026 for the 2026-2027 winter season. The season is planned to run until Wednesday, 5 May 2027. Last season it opened on 19 December.

Akakura Kanko Resort sits in the Myoko area, about 3 hours 15 minutes from Tokyo. Take the Hokuriku Shinkansen to Joetsu-Myoko Station, then the Myoko Haneuma Line to Myoko-Kogen Station and a short bus or taxi ride.
