Saturday June 8th marks the official start of mountain biking season here in Niseko, with the Niseko Grand Hirafu MTB course set to open on that day.

The Gondola Access DH course is set to open a month later, on Saturday July 13th. 

Mountain biking is a popular and ever-growing summer sport in Niseko, with courses available to both challenge the experts and keep the beginners safe.
