NISEKO, Hokkaido – Niseko aims to one day be as famous for its mountain biking trails as its powder snow, becoming an all-year attraction much like Whistler in Vancouver and Zermatt in the Swiss Alps.
Plans are afoot to build an intricate network of eight trails for all levels and ages, to realise Niseko’s untapped potential as Asia’s top off-road biking destination.
