Chase4Snow Discovery: White vs Yellow Lights in Night Skiing


Was it on purpose, or just a coincidence?

I noticed that the night ski lights at Hirafu (Grand Hirafu) are different colors on each side. If you follow the white lights, you’ll end up at the Ace area’s Center 4 lift; if you follow the yellow lights, you’ll reach the King area’s Gondola. This helps everyone stay safe at night and not get lost❗️

The night skiing run is a full 2 kilometers—that’s one of the big reasons Hirafu is so popular! 🏂⛷
