Tazawako Ski Area Opening And Closing Dates for 2014~2015 Season

Tazawako Ski Area plans to open for the season on Friday, December 19. Tazawako Ski Area will remain open until April 5, and after that they will only open on weekends until a closing date on April 19th.

Early season snow conditions could delay these opening dates. And late season snow conditions could just as easily cause Tazawako Ski Area to close earlier than scheduled. So all dates are based on snow conditions and are subject to change.
