First Tracks, First Chair, Best Snow

05 January, 2026

There’s something special about being first on the mountain. Untouched powder, and wide-open runs before the crowds arrive.

With GoSnow First Tracks Private Lessons, you get all of that (plus expert coaching) without the stress of early alarms or lift queues.

Running from 8.30am to 9.30am, First Tracks is your chance to start the day strong, ski smarter, and make the most of Niseko’s world-renowned snow conditions.
