Chalet Christiana is in a fantastic location – ski in/ski out in the skiers-only Okushiga-Kogen area. Okushiga Kogen is one of the highest altitude areas of Shiga Kogen, and as such has fantastic powder snow. It is connected to Yakebitaiyama resort and the rest of that side of the mountain.

Chalet Christiana has a wide variety of interesting and unique rooms with beds, bunks, futons and with most rooms having their own ensuite. The lodge has a great restaurant ran by the owners son, an Austrian trained chef who uses organic and locally made ingredients whereever possible, and bakes bread fresh daily.
