Spring Valley Izumi Kogen

Miyagi Prefecture, Japan · 10.4 km of runs, 4 lifts, top 957 m

Close to Sendai on the slopes of Izumigatake, Spring Valley (now styled Spring Valley Sendai Izumi) is an easy-access city hill with mostly gentle terrain and night skiing. It suits after-work skiers and families from Miyagi, and in summer the lifts carry hikers while a zipline course and mountain bike park take over.
