Skiing and Snowboarding
Nine resorts spread out through the valley ensure you are spoilt for choice on any given day, with each mountain having it's fair share of beginner, intermediate and expert terrain.

Happo-one is, of course, five minutes walk from our doorstep, but all the other hills are easily reachable by shuttle bus service. See you on the hill!
Daytrips
Hakuba can be your base for many fascinating day trips, on the way up or back from the major centres, or to break up your ski vacation.
Onsen / Hot Springs

The "onsen" experience, like so many things in Japan, is a multilayered experience. Some hot springs form the focal point for a whole tourist region. with requisite souvenir shops and restaurants (a whole other topic meditating on the Japanese national character!) Others serve a very local constituency (outsiders are always welcome, though they might be given a curious but friendly look over) and probably have served as the trading house for local news and interaction much longer than any local tv or newspaper.
Each hotspring may have a slightly different makeup to it's water, a different alkali content or mineral content, but they can all be guaranteed to leave one feeling not only physically clean, but somehow... feeling much better about life in general after sloughing all your cares away in the tub!
