Super Sledging at Joetsu Kokusai

One of the most fun things you can do on snow is sledging. Mix kids and snow and the two things you are likely to get every time are snowballs and sledging. Sliding down the white stuff seems to be built into us. Joetsu Kokusai, already known for their fantastic summer kids play park, have turned their attention to winter this year and opened a new sledging area that is billed as one of the best in Japan.

They have a dedicated sledging area that is the perfect pitch for some fast sledging and also a selection of different sledges and toboggans so you can experiment to find your perfect ride.

The sledging area or "SoriLand" boasts 500 metres of run - more than enough for even the most adventurous sledger. You are not likely to tire of SoriLand but if the little ones do fancy something different there is also a kids' play land to enjoy.
