Kobe Rokkosan Snow Park Admission Ticket

• What is Rokkosan Snow Park?

Located on Mount Rokko in Kobe, Rokkosan Snow Park is a rare artificial snow resort in the Kansai region that is easily accessible from the city center.
Compared to ski resorts in the north that require long-distance travel, this location allows travelers to combine city sightseeing and snow activities in a single day, making it especially friendly for itineraries with limited time.
The park features two gentle slopes, making it an ideal venue for Ski and Snowboarding beginners to get used to their center of gravity and practice turning and stopping. It is also a popular choice for Kansai families to let their children experience snow for the first time.
Beyond the slopes, the park has a separate snow play area, completely segregated from the ski slopes, allowing travelers who do not intend to ski and young children to play in the snow with peace of mind.
The resort offers rental options for snow sleds, Ski, and Snowboard equipment, so even if you arrive empty-handed, you can immediately gear up and hit the snow. For travelers looking to experience snow activities for the first time, the barrier to entry at Rokkosan Snow Park is quite low.

• What can you experience at Rokkosan Snow Park?

Activities at Rokkosan Snow Park are generally divided into two areas: the ski slopes and the snow play area.
The two slopes have gentle gradients and lengths that are not intimidating, making them perfect for those stepping onto Ski or Snowboard gear for the first time to practice repeatedly. Experienced riders often use this place as a warm-up or as a venue to introduce friends to the sport.
The snow play area on the other side is a zone specifically designed for playing in the snow, completely separated from the ski slopes, so there is no need to worry about skiers or snowboarders passing by at high speeds.
You can rent snow sleds here to slide down dedicated slopes. Each sled can hold up to two people, allowing you to hold onto your child and experience the fun of speeding together. There is also a snowball target game to see who can hit the target accurately.
For travelers who prefer a quieter experience, you can rent snowman molds to build a perfectly shaped snowman for photos. The park also features physical activity courses suitable for children, allowing kids with endless energy to burn it off.
If you just want to step on the snow and take a few snowy photos, there are no barriers to entry here either.

• Should I choose the snow sled package or the equipment rental package at Rokkosan Snow Park?

The key to your choice lies in whether you really want to try skiing or snowboarding.
If you are traveling with young children or seniors, or simply want to feel the texture of the snow, take photos, and play, the snow sled rental package is the most suitable. It includes the entrance fee and snow sled rental; no skills are required, and you can head straight out once you put on a waterproof jacket.
If you want to formally challenge yourself with sliding, it depends on which equipment you prefer: the Ski rental package includes skis, boots, and poles, along with a ski jacket and pants set. Skiing is easier to pick up, and stopping is relatively intuitive, making it the most common starting point for beginners. The Snowboard rental package includes a snowboard and boots, also with a ski jacket and pants set. The learning curve is slightly steeper, but the sensation of sliding once you find your balance is completely different.
Please note that both equipment packages do not include accessories such as hats, gloves, and goggles, so please bring your own.
If you have already brought your own full set of equipment, you can simply purchase an entrance ticket.
