Ski areas from Japan’s past 過去の日本のスキー場を懐かしむ

Hakusan Sena Kogen

Hakusan City, Ishikawa Prefecture

白山瀬女高原スキー場　石川県白山市

Hakusan Sena Kogen was the newest ski area in Ishikawa Prefecture, located in the mountainous central region of the geographically large Hakusan City. The Austrian alpine ski racer Toni Sailer apparently was involved in the design of the ski area. It featured a 2,443m long 6-person gondola lift with the 3,400m-long Panorama Course coming down from the gondola top to base. Fine 360-degree views were afforded from the peak, including views of the Sea of Japan.
