Hakuba

Hakuba is best known in Japan for hosting events during the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics. Set in Nagano Prefecture beneath the Northern Japanese Alps, the village is part of the Hakuba Valley, where steep mountains frame the Himekawa River corridor. The Hakuba Ski Jumping Stadium remains a prominent reminder of the Olympic competitions, while Happo-one and neighbouring mountain areas have made the district a major base for winter sports. Snow defines the colder months, but the surrounding highlands also draw walkers and climbers when the trails reopen.
