Myoko Kogen Information
Myoko Kogen Info |
Myoko Kogen is located just across the prefectural boundary in Niigata, to the north of Nagano. While Myoko Kogen City covers a large area, the ski resort is centered on the small village area of Akakura Onsen (hot spring). While there are a number of resorts spread out across the Myoko Kogen area, Akakura is generally the best location to stay, as it is the main transportation hub, as well as the only area with shops and restaurants. Myoko Kogen Station is located about 15-20 minutes’ drive away, it was a JR Station until a few years ago, until the Shinkansen line to Kanazawa was opened, but then it changed hands to local authorities, and the line was split between the Shinano Rail Co, which runs from Nagano to Myoko Kogen, and the Echigo Tokumeki Rail Co line which runs north to Joetsu. |
