草津高原ユースホステル · 群馬県吾妻郡草津町草津464-1
Measured over 500 m rather than 800 m: eight hundred metres through snow carrying a board is not a ten minute walk, and that distance is what separates ski-in from a shuttle bus.

What is actually within a 10 minute walk
Straight-line distance from the building, measured against OpenStreetMap. Walking times use 80 m per minute, the convention used by Japanese property listings. Only about four in ten places in Japan have an English name in OpenStreetMap, so some names below appear in Japanese — still useful for showing to a taxi driver or matching a shopfront.
Getting around

2 foundGondolas, chair lifts and rope tows. Whether you can reach one carrying skis is what separates ski-in from a shuttle bus.

Post office
not in this reading0 foundSends things home, and holds a Japan Post ATM that takes foreign cards — away from the cities this is often the only one within walking distance. Sub-post offices (簡易郵便局) frequently have no machine, so they are listed here but not counted as ATMs.
None found within 800 m.
Currency exchange
not scored0 foundShown for information only. 197 exchange counters are mapped for the whole country, far fewer than exist, so they are never scored. If you have a card, the ATM count above is the more reliable answer.
