The days are getting shorter, the first snow isn't far off, and the best weeks of the season are already being claimed. If Japan is on your radar this winter, now is the moment to finalise your plans with us at HSC Japan.
Our backcountry powder program with IFMGA-certified Grip Guides and lessons in Rusutsu through our partner Hokkaido Ski Club are filling for 2026–27 — and the prime powder windows always go first.

Something Rare: Legacy Ski Lines
This season, we're proud to introduce an experience unlike anything else in Japan.
Legacy Ski Lines is a fully private ski week, personally hosted by Andrej Miklavc OLY — a three-time Olympian, Alpine Ski World Cup winner, and former IOC "Believe in Sport" Ambassador.
This is not a hosted ski week or a booked program. It's a private week of genuine shared presence with one of alpine skiing's most decorated competitors — skiing beside you, curating lines most skiers never see, and sharing the Olympic stories that only surface in the mountains, in private.
What makes it extraordinary:
7 private days with a three-time Olympian, entirely at your pace
On- and off-piste line curation through terrain that takes a lifetime to know
Technique insight and coaching — by invitation, never imposed
Fireside evenings and Olympic stories shared only in presence
Absolute discretion: no media, no observers, no repetition
Adapts beautifully for families and young athletes, or executive groups
Available at premier destinations worldwide — the Alps, Japan, North America, or a destination of your choosing (Australia in September…?). Availability is strictly limited to a small number of weeks each winter.
"This is luxury defined not by noise — but by quiet, depth, and authenticity."
For those for whom this feels relevant, timing and destination can be discussed quietly and without obligation.
