Resort Guide
A guide to the ski resorts of Hakuba and Myoko, with information on terrain, facilities and what to expect at each resort.
-
Happo One
Hakuba Happo-One is one of Japan’s best-known ski resorts, with long, challenging runs, varied terrain and panoramic views of the Northern Japanese Alps.
-
Hakuba Goryu & Hakuba 47
These two resorts form effectively one big resort almost the same size as Happo. Both sides offer fantastic views of the big peaks behind and great skiing.
-
Iwatake
Iwatake is an intermediate skier's dream and boasts the best views in the valley along with one of the best halfpipes.
-
Tsugaike
Tsugaike is actually situated in Otari Village, the next village over to the north, but it is fairly easy to reach by bus from the lodge and is well worth a visit.
-
Cortina
Hakuba Cortina and Norikura resorts share the same ski lift pass and are located on the northern end of the Hakuba Valley.
-
Kashimayari
These three resorts combine to form a great area accessible with one lift pass, just a free shuttle bus ride away.
-
Yanaba
Yanaba re-invented itself a few years ago to vie with Hakuba 47 for the title of best park in Hakuba.
