HAKUBA GORYU

Up to 5km runs from top to bottom along with some of the best beginners slopes in Hakuba at Iimori. Ideal place to learn to ski or snowboard.

Base facilities at Escal Plaza offer a range of dining options from Subway sandwiches to more traditional fare.

Plenty of good snow and easy slopes up top at Alps Daira, however learners will need to come back down the Gondola. The nighter skiing is one of the longer ones in Hakuba, but wrap up warmly.

All passes are valid at Hakuba 47 as well, expanding the terrain and having something for everyone.

For those after a season ticket, get in early as the early bird discounts can save you up to 40% off the ticket.
