The best areas to stay in Hakuba for skiing are Wadano and Happo, both offering excellent access to the slopes and a range of amenities.


Wadano is a prime choice for those prioritising direct access to the ski lifts. It's located just above The Happo One ski resort, meaning many accommodations here are either ski-in/ski-out or just a short walk to the lifts. The area is characterised by its alpine village feel, with a good selection of high-end hotels and chalets. It's a quieter area, superb for travellers who want to relax after a day on the snow.


For couples looking for a mix of convenience and a bit more activity, Happo is an excellent option. This area is the main village and offers direct access to the Happo One ski resort. It's more spread out than Wadano but still very walkable, with shuttle buses connecting most accommodations to the lifts. You'll find a wider variety of restaurants, bars, and shops here, providing more options for evening entertainment.

The best areas to stay in Hakuba for dining options are typically around Happo-one and Wadano, which offer the broadest selection of restaurants and cafes.


Happo-one is the most central and well-known area, located at the base of The Happo-one ski resort. The main street, known as Ekimae-dori, and the surrounding lanes are dotted with various eateries, from traditional Japanese izakayas to Western-style restaurants. You'll find options ranging from casual ramen shops to more upscale dining experiences. Many accommodations in this area also feature their own restaurants, often serving both Japanese and international cuisine.


Wadano, situated slightly above Happo-one, is another excellent choice for food enthusiasts. This area has a reputation for its more refined dining establishments and a good selection of international cuisine, often found within the hotels and chalets. It's a bit more spread out than Happo-one but still offers plenty of choices within walking distance, especially for those staying in the heart of Wadano.


For couples looking for a diverse culinary experience, both Happo-one and Wadano provide ample choices for romantic dinners or casual meals. You can easily find a cosy spot for traditional Japanese food or opt for a restaurant with a more international menu, often with good wine lists.


Families will also find these areas convenient. Many restaurants in Happo-one and Wadano offer kid-friendly options, and the variety means there's something to suit every palate.

The best activities to do in Hakuba besides skiing focus on enjoying the stunning natural surroundings and local culture, even without snow.


For those visiting outside of winter, particularly in spring, summer, or autumn, hiking is a fantastic option. The area boasts numerous trails suiting all levels, from gentle strolls around Happo-one's lower slopes to more challenging ascents leading to panoramic views of the Northern Alps. The Happo Pond hike, accessible via gondola and chairlifts, offers breathtaking alpine scenery.


Couples looking for a relaxing experience will appreciate the abundance of natural hot springs, known as onsen, throughout Hakuba. Many hotels offer their own private onsen, but there are also public facilities like the Happo Onsen area, which features several bathhouses with different mineral compositions. Soaking in these therapeutic waters is a superb way to unwind after a day of exploring.


Families will find plenty to keep everyone entertained. Adventure parks with zip-lines and aerial obstacle courses are popular during the warmer months.
