Aza Hirafu Forest is an exceptional representation of all of the best that the Niseko region has to offer. The narrow strip of forest is filled with splendid old-growth native trees and bordered by a pleasant stream creating a dynamic shelf to position structures against. Bordered by farmland to one side, the site provides a pristine powder field in winter whilst evoking Hokkaido’s heritage as an agricultural centre. The true splendour of the site is undoubtedly the unimpeded views of both Mt. Yotei and Mt. Annupuri which are guaranteed to take your breath away.

Positioned on a quiet backroad, the site is only a minute’s drive from the area’s main thoroughfare Route 5, meaning that Kutchan and Hirafu are both just moments away though the site affords exceptional privacy and seclusion. This site is the perfect setting for a small private project where peace and serenity are an upmost priority.
