Fujimi Panorama

“I visited Fujimi Panorama and was instantly struck by the steep slope of the gondola course right from the start. It's definitely a place where careful navigation is necessary to avoid injuries. I also noticed that the course near the center house is designed for beginners, a useful piece of information for newcomers. However, one must be cautious when encountering groups like ski schools, as these areas can become rather crowded. Despite its popularity, even on weekdays, which results in queues at the gondola stop, the convenience of reaching the location by car is a notable advantage.”

“On a pleasant Sunday in February, I made my way to the 4th parking lot just past 11. Conveniently, a shuttle bus was available for transport. I opted for an afternoon skiing ticket, quite a unique offering these days. Unfortunately, the snow conditions left much to be desired, being of poor quality and limited in breadth. However, the venue certainly lived up to its name, offering a stunning panoramic view of Mt. Fuji and Mt. Yatsugatake. Despite the breathtaking scenery, the subpar snow conditions and overcrowded slopes led to an early conclusion of my skiing adventure. Interestingly, the location's proximity to the interchange mirrors that of Yuzawa, along with similar snow conditions. To cap off the day, I indulged in a crepe from the food truck at the base of the mountain. An experience like this would be ideal for spring skiing.”

“Returning to Fujimi Panorama after two decades was a delightful experience. The staff at the ski rental and ticket office were remarkably warm and friendly. The weather, although a tad warmer than expected, was just at the cusp of causing the snow to melt. I observed ski schools scattered around the area, which was impressive as they didn't disrupt the experience for the general public. However, I did encounter a slight hiccup with the Yahoo! Navi directions, which turned out to be inaccurate and resulted in a significant loss of time. Contrary to my expectations, it didn't quite measure up to Google Maps.”

“The Fujimi Panorama is an impressive artificial ski resort, complete with a delightful gondola. It's an optimal destination for skiing, where it's quite satisfying to complete up to three ski runs in the morning.”
