Hakuba is the most popular ski destination in Japan and its reputation is well deserved. This former Winter Olympics host resort is only a few hours from Tokyo city by bus or bullet train and therefore a fantastic option for touring ski/snowboard groups.

Hakuba has a great variety of terrain with 9 resorts, over 200 runs and an average of 14 metres of snow per season. You'll definitely find some of that famous Ja-pow here!

We’ve included a flexible Tokyo stop-over either side and can arrange a variety of cultural experiences tailored for your students, making this an excellent sports, cultural and learning experience for students.
