Sapporo Teine Ski Resort
サッポロテイネ
The alpine skiing venue of the 1972 Sapporo Winter Olympics, about 40 minutes from downtown. You can look out over Ishikari Bay while skiing, making it Sapporo's most convenient large ski resort.
Sapporo Teine Ski Resort lies on Mount Teine in Nishi Ward, Sapporo. Alpine skiing and luge events of the 1972 Sapporo Winter Olympics were held here, and the Olympic flame platform still stands on the mountain. The resort has two areas. The Highland area has steeper slopes suited to intermediate and advanced skiers. The Olympia area is gentler and suited to beginners and families. On fine days, you can look down over the city of Sapporo and Ishikari Bay from the slopes. Ski rental, a ski school and night skiing are available. Getting there: it takes about 40 minutes by car from central Sapporo. In winter, direct buses run from Sapporo Station and downtown hotels. You can also take the JR line to Teine Station and transfer to a bus.
