Up Kannabe sits in the Kannabe Kogen region of Toyooka City and has been operating since 1923. The mountain is built for learners and intermediate riders—80% of the terrain falls into those categories—with two base areas (North and South) offering separate facilities. Night skiing runs Friday through Sunday and some holidays, giving you options if you're working around a schedule.<br><br>The riding here is straightforward: mellow pitches, forgiving fall lines, and a layout that doesn't demand much navigation. There's a 33-degree course for those wanting a bit more bite, but don't come expecting steep or technical terrain. The mountain does get artificial snow-making support, which helps extend the season into March, though opening has shifted later in recent years—typically mid-to-late December now rather than November.<br><br>Up Kannabe shares the Kannabe Kogen region with two other ski areas, Manba and Oku Kannabe. The base area includes kids' facilities like the Super Kids Way (a 150m covered moving walkway) and snow activities beyond just riding. Toyooka City is nearby if you want to explore beyond the mountain.
