Rusutsu Private Lessons

Make the most of your time in Rusutsu and have the best experience on the mountain by improving your skills with a Whiteroom private ski or snowboard lesson.

A privately instructed lesson lets you go one-on-one or in small private groups of up to 4 per instructor.

The minimum age is 5. Skiers and snowboarders cannot be mixed in a group.

Whiteroom can tailor the day to either discover a new sport, improve your skills and technique, gain confidence on piste or in powder, and explore more of the mountain to make the most of your time.

If you want to learn to ski or snowboard powder or refine your powder technique, the instructor will be able to take you to spots with the highest likelihood of finding fresh powder. 

The start time of the day is flexible and the instructor can meet you at your lift of choice or pick you up at your accommodation and drop you off at the end of the day.

Book one or more days for yourself as private lessons or with your group of up to 4. PLEASE NOTE - These lessons are for PRIVATE GROUPS of up to 4 guests only i.e. you cannot join a group.

NB For the 2024/25 season, lessons cannot be provided for guests of the Rusutsu Resort Hotel and Westin Rusutsu, due to restrictions placed by Rusutsu Resort. Lessons are open to those staying at The Vale or other Rusutsu accommodations. 

Advanced bookings are essential because these Rusutsu ski lessons book out well ahead of time. You can make a booking request to check about availability for your preferred dates.

Please note that Guide bookings are NOT CONFIRMED until a 20% deposit has been paid. Final balance is due 30 days prior to the start of your booking. You must complete our booking form and Registration/Waiver from before your guided day. Failure to do so will result in the cancelation of your booking. Guide Bookings Cancellation Policy Your 20% deposit is non-refundable unless we cancel the guided day due to unforeseen circumstances such as bad weather or guide injury. Whiteroom Guides will refund your full payment less the 20% deposit if notice is given 30 days prior to your booking date commencement. Whiteroom Guides will refund 50% of your full payment if less than 30 days but more than 7 days notice of cancellation is given.

Backcountry Safety Equipment Requirements

Backcountry safety equipment is compulsory for all participants on any guided day. All of the necessary equipment (transceiver, shovel, probe and backpack) is available to hire. Please advise us if you need this equipment when booking. You may also bring your own gear to use. If your Backcountry trip requires Alpine Touring equipment, split boards or snowshoes we will advise & recommend where the equipment can be rented from if you do not already have your own.

Pre Purchasing Lift Tickets

For day trips we recommend against purchasing lift tickets in advance, as there are no additional cost savings. Pre-purchasing lift tickets may only serve to limit your flexibility. Due to localized weather patterns, conditions can often be much different at nearby resorts & may influence the final destination decision.

Extra transportation charges

Greater Furano or Niseko area (outside of Hirafu and immediate surrounds and outside of Furano and immediate surrounds) requiring approximately one hour extra travel – client pays ¥10,000 extra. For example picking up in Rusutsu and taking to Kiroro. For Asahikawa pick-ups then on to Asahidake or Kamui/Pipu it is 2 hrs extra travel on top of 3hrs regular driving to Asahidake. 5hrs of driving plus guiding = a very long day. If clients are staying in Asahikawa clients they will be charged and extra ¥10,000 and must also pay for the guides accommodation either before or after the guided day.
