Soar above the snowscape at 1,300 meters in a private gondola while savoring craft beer and special mountain cuisine for an extraordinarily memorable evening.

Celebrate the Slope Life
with the "Après-Ski Gondola"

"Après-Ski" is a French-inspired culture centered around relaxing and socialized enjoyment after a day on the slopes. Experience this captivating tradition in the untouched beauty of Mt. Tanigawa. As the resort closes for the day, step into a private 22-person gondola at dusk to gaze at the peaceful evening snowscape and toast to an unforgettable day on the mountain.

A Cozy, Fully Private Space
Glowing with Neon Art

The spacious interior of our converted 22-person gondola is outfitted with custom tables and chairs made from thinned local Minakami timber. Illuminated by custom neon art and warm ambient lighting, it transforms into an inviting party space floating above the twilight slopes. Connect your device via Bluetooth to stream your favorite tunes, whether you want to celebrate lively with friends or enjoy deep conversations in full privacy.

Local Craft Beer &
Special Mountain Cuisine

Savor craft beers brewed locally by Minakami’s own OCTONE Brewing, along with a selection of other beverages. Unwind and raise a toast with refreshing local drinks after an invigorating day on the snow.

Enjoy a hearty food platter featuring sausage and fried chicken—perfect for refueling. Gather around the table with good company and enjoy a memorable feast in the sky.
