Lessons and Rentals

Lessons

Hakuba is the perfect place to learn to ski or snowboard. With many clear, blue-sky days and a reputation for some of Japan’s best English speaking instructors, it’s the best place to kick start your snow adventures.

Hakuba Snow Sports School has the best learning terrain in the Hakuba Valley, and is easily accessed by one of the buses that stops right outside Hakuba Matata Lodge. For details about lesson types and pricing check out their website.
