If you are as curious as me about what fun new experiences there are in Hokkaido Kitami City besides hot springs and barbecue, I have to recommend a super Chill and definitely a place to relax and relieve stress - Kitami Wakamatsu Shimin Ski Resort! The highlight of Day 7 of this trip is to Kitami Wakamatsu Ski Resort and really feel the fun of flying in the powder snow. The scene is simply "Snow much fun"! Snow novice or master can have a lot of fun here⛷️
