Snowball Chalet Information

Snowball Chalet... Living the dream in the Japanese Alps After traveling the world and working 7 back to back ski seasons, Dan and Andy Solo have finally found the perfect place to settle their skis and snowboards and share their love of adventure and snow with guests from all over the world. Without a doubt, Japan is the best destination for a winter holiday! The wonderful people, fabulous food, powder snow, incredible culture, history, bullet trains, sumo, gardens, sake, scenery, temples, onsens (hot springs), ice sculptures, fire festivals… the list goes endlessly on. Snowball Chalet is right in the heart of the Japanese Alps in a gorgeous little ski village called Madarao. Madarao has some of the most amazing skiing and snowboarding and is unique because tree skiing is encouraged. It consistently receives more snow than just about anywhere in Japan rendering it one of the most sensational Japanese ski destinations.
