Hakuba Happo-One Snow Resort Reviews
白馬八方尾根スキー場
Hakuba Happo-One is Japan's most internationally renowned ski resort, set on the flanks of the Northern Alps in Hakuba Village, Nagano. Host of the alpine skiing events at the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics — including the downhill, super-G, and combined — it offers 16 courses across a 1,071-metre vertical drop and 220 hectares, fed by consistent Japow from Sea of Japan storms. The longest run stretches 8 km from summit to base, and the resort anchors the 11-resort Hakuba Valley, one of Asia's premier ski destinations.
