At Naeba, lift tickets are free for children up to elementary-school age. The resort has a kids park and gentle slopes, so it suits families.
Naeba is part of the larger Mt. Naeba area. With one lift ticket, you can also reach the Kagura ski area by the Dragondola, the longest gondola in Japan at about 5,481 metres. This gives families a very large area to explore.
