❄️ Winter wonderland! Sharing the stunning views of Lake Biwa Ski Resort 🏂

In January, I visited the "Biwako Valley Ski Resort" in Shiga Prefecture. It only takes 40 minutes to reach Shiga Station from Kyoto by taking the JR Kosei Line, and then transfer to the bus for about 10 minutes to reach the ski resort. The transportation is super convenient! This is not only the closest ski resort in the Kansai area, but you can also ski while overlooking the magnificent scenery of Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan. It is a double enjoyment of vision and sports✨ The ski resort has 9 ski slopes, and everyone from beginners to experts can find a suitable slope: - Beginner's trail: gentle and wide, suitable for beginners to practice - Intermediate trail: moderate slope, you can enjoy smooth sliding - Advanced trail: very challenging, the steepest slope is 30 degrees! The transparent cable car at the top of the mountain is a must-try. It takes 5 minutes to reach an altitude of 1,100 meters, and you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view, which is so beautiful that you will forget the cold❄️ 📍 Address: 1547-1 Kido, Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture 🚆 Transportation: - Kyoto Station → JR Kosei Line to "Shiga Station" (about 40 minutes) - Transfer to the "びわ湖バレイ线" bus (about 10 minutes) Recommended to friends who want to ski and enjoy the scenery, it is definitely worth the fare! ⛷️💙 #Biwako Ski #Kansai Ski #Shiga Tourism #Winter Travel #Register for June Hotel Test Sleeper 2025
