    We are Remote Family owned mountain lodge nested above the historic Onsen town of Nozawa Onsen. We believe in a strong community approach where everyone staying assist with day to day tasks of the lodge's running. We are focused on Primally providing wholesome organic (when possible) meals and are conscious of the environment and our surroundings.

    We are all Australian and live in Sydney, when not spending our time in Japan at our two lodges during the northern hemisphere winter ski season. We do not have paying guest and the only guest staying are family and friends.

    The logistics of being situated halfway up a mountain are at times challenging, but are always rewarding and that is why we value the space which we are inviting you to share with us.

    It is advised that if you wish to apply that you would have some basic on snow skills such as skiing/snowboarding /climbing (or just be really keen to learn!!!), having a valid international drivers licence is a must for both driving the snowmobiles and car .

    Your own personal Ski pases for the resort will be provided along with all meals and any basic work gear (gumboots, gloves)

    You will need to come with your own warm weather gear (temperatures can get down to -20 degrees celsius ) and goggles and your own skisnowboard equipment

    We run a large sustainable permaculture farm in Australia, so are very hands on people, being located where we are on the mountain means there is no road access by car for 5 months of the year which means we need to maintenance and repair everything ourselves and be set up for bad weather which can last of days.

    Among the tasks you will assist with are cooking, washing, ski gear upkeep, snow management around the lodges, Snowmobile driving, general assisting with repair and upkeep of the building.


    We have been living and visiting our mountain lodges for over 18 years we are familiar the the surrounding and can offer up many suggestions for your days off to explore the region of nearby surroundings
