In Hakuba
Hakuba may be skiers heaven but between May and October, it is transformed into a tranquil retreat. Green replaces white and you find yourself in a picture-postcard Eden. In the ‘Green’ season Hakuba becomes one of Japan’s premier Summer destinations and a natural magnet for outdoor sports enthusiasts. From the window of One Happo, you have the ultimate vantage point over the valley that has now become green and lush. Paragliders sweep down the mountain and hikers dot the alpine trails below. One Hakuba and Phoenix One are cocooned in natural forestry. Take a bath outside, savouring the mountain fresh air and the stillness of your surroundings. Or perhaps you will take a picnic and relax on the shores of Lake Aoki, or stroll to one of the many hotsprings in the village below? As the evening approaches, fire up the barbecue, pour a glass of wine and reconnect with yourself and loved ones. Sometimes the loveliest pleasures are the most simple.
Activities
Here at the base of the Northern Japan Alps, you will find the most scenic hikes and vistas in all of Japan. There are infinite trails, walkways and paths for alpinist and mountain bikers. Mountain bike tours, downhill, fun ride and free-ride tours are all available
Canoeing , rafting , kayaking , canyoning & wakeboarding are just some of the watersports on offer. Kayak tours and multi-day downriver tours can be arranged. Firefly canoe trips can be arranged and are a unique experience that we recommend highly. Swimming in the lakes is a must Lake Aoki is one of the clearest lakes in Japan and is a 10-15 minute drive away.
What better way to acquaint yourself with the Northern Alps? Located a short walk from the chalets, you can fly immediately in tandem with a bilingual instructor. This is an experience that you will never forget – again, highly recommended.
What better backdrop to a corporate team building event than the stunning beauty of Hakuba? We work with local adventure experts Evergreen Outdoor Centre to coordinate workshops for groups of all abilities. Workshops are tailored to your needs and run on a 2 or 3 day basis. Week long retreats can also be arranged.
