Understanding the Snow Report

Snow Measurements

Base depth, summit depth, and recent snowfall are the core numbers to watch. At Biwako, summit conditions (1174m) can differ noticeably from the base, so we break both out separately rather than showing a single average.

Weather Conditions

Current weather conditions affect snow quality. Cold temperatures with low wind typically preserve snow quality, while warm temperatures or rain can impact conditions negatively — something worth watching closely at Biwako's 950m base elevation, where temperatures run milder than the summit.

Data Sources

Snowfall and depth figures for Biwako come from official mountain sources; weather and outlook data comes from independent forecasting services. The mountain is served by 8 lifts, including an aerial tram and 2 quad chairlifts.

When to Check

Conditions can change overnight, so mornings and late afternoons are the best times to check back on Biwako. With Biwako's season running from Dec 5, 2025 to Mar 29, 2026, checking daily during a storm cycle gives you the clearest read on new snow.
