Hakuba area is a valley nestled in the backcountry of Nagano prefecture. There is a really good choice of mountains to ski at here with Happo One and Hakuba 47 being the most popular. Tsugaike, Cortina, and Iwatake are all highly recommended.

Other resorts in the area are Sun Alpina, Goryuu Tomi,  and Norikura. All of these slopes are fun in their own right and are well worth checking out. You need to spend a minimum of a day’s skiing at eachThe snow is usually pretty good here and there are plenty of eateries around if you explore the area. There are also a couple of good Onsens.
