Resorts Overview
Hakuba - a mountain village in the Japanese Alps, about 3-4 hours from Tokyo - blends big ski-town vibes with everyday Japanese life, making it social but still authentic. The Hakuba Valley gives access to multiple ski resorts and huge terrain, with plenty of restaurants, bars and cosy spots serving Nagano’s famous soba noodles. Winter is packed with night skiing, events and easy trips to Tokyo, keeping things lively all season.
Working a season here feels varied and lively, with endless ski options, buzzing evenings and proper town life.
