There are many kid-friendly runs that cruise through the terrain and ample powder to last all day.

8. Niseko, Japan
Combining four separate but interlinked ski resorts, Niseko has been called Japan’s number one snow resort for its high quality powder snow and accessibility to tourists. Aside from backcountry powder skiing/snowboarding, night skiing has become a popular and challenging alternative for adventurous types.
Consistently a favorite for international skiers, Niseko offers cat skiing, cross-country skiing and heli-skiing on untouched powder bowls near Mt Yōtei. In addition to an array of snow-filled activities at one of its terrain adventure parks, Niseko has quite a lively après-ski scene.
