It's not often you'll find powder in Hiroshima. Most of the resorts here are small and snowfall is unpredictable, which means risking life and limb on hard pack from time to time.

Several tourist options are available in the area and the Seto Inland Sea - often compared in beauty to the Aegean Sea in Greece - is definitely worth a look.
