Hakuba Hana

Written by Derek a Skier from Hampton, Victoria

Hana Hakuba was a great place to stay and highly recommend. Hakuba a bit disappointing compared to other japanese skiing. Village quite spread out, scruffy and lacking atmosphere. Local shuttle not very regular or convenient...ended up walking a lot.

Hakuba - something good, something not

Written by Tim a Skier from Melbourne, Australia
8/4/2010

Spent 8 days in Hakuba in late Jan 2010 after skiing a variety of other Japanese resorts over recent years. Hakuba is actually a town in the valley, from which ascend a number of resorts available on 1 ticket.

Most accommodation is near the foot of Happo One, the biggest (area) resort as well as the most vertical. Worth also trying 3 other resorts in the valley Goryu / Hakuba 47, Tsugaike and Cortina. Patrollers are strict except for Cortina, so it''s hard to get freshies without going out of bounds.

Getting around Hakuba is a pain. Restaurants and bars are spread out so you'll have to walk or take shuttle (which costs). Shuttle is slow and routes confusing.

The Villa Hakuba is great but the language barrier and lack of western food can be a hinderance to some. Depending on the exchange rate it can be more expensive than usual and at its cheapest it is still quite pricey. Hakuba is an amazing place however and i recommend going there for sure!
