Fukagawa

Fukagawa City, Hokkaido

深川スキー場　北海道深川市

Fukagawa was a ski area located to the south-east of central Fukagawa City in the central region of Hokkaido. Two long quad lifts serviced the courses which were mainly suited to beginners and intermediates. The outline of what was Fukagawa is now only just about visible on maps and satellite images as the mountain was returned to nature soon after closing in 2007.
