Hakuba Cortina International Ski Resort

Overview

Hakuba Cortina International Ski Resort is a ski resort located in Otari Village, Kitaazumi District, Nagano Prefecture. Situated at the furthest point of the Hakuba area, it offers stunning views of the majestic Northern Alps. Commonly called 'Hakuba Cortina Ski Resort', its name comes from the resemblance of the Ikeda terrain and environment to Cortina d'Ampezzo in the Italian Dolomites, a similarity confirmed after a site visit with Dr. Domenico Gio, Cultural Attaché at the Italian Embassy. Its superb access, with direct connection to the hotel, is another major attraction. Hotel Green Plaza Hakuba, with its distinctive red roof, is an iconic symbol of the ski resort. The seamless integration of the slopes and hotel ensures a comfortable ski experience without worrying about travel time. The slopes offer a variety of courses suitable for all skill levels, from beginners to advanced skiers and snowboarders. The spacious Ikeda slope, with its gentle gradient, is perfect for beginners and families. On the other hand, advanced skiers can challenge themselves on exciting courses such as the Haiedayama slope, renowned for its steep incline and powder snow, among the best in the Hakuba area. In recent years, the tree-run area, opened beyond the marked slopes, has become extremely popular, a powder paradise for enthusiasts. Hakuba Cortina International Ski Resort boasts excellent snow quality, attracting numerous skiers and snowboarders on powder days. Furthermore, a combined lift ticket is available for use at the adjacent Hakuba Norikura Onsen Ski Resort, allowing you to enjoy both resorts. Hakuba Norikura Onsen Ski Resort features the Sky View slope, offering breathtaking views of Mount Hakuba and the Hakuba Three Mountains. With the combined lift ticket, you can even ski down from Cortina to Hakuba Norikura Onsen Ski Resort. As a resort where the hotel and slopes are integrated, Hakuba Cortina International Ski Resort provides excellent dining and accommodation options. The hotel offers a range of facilities, including restaurants, bars, and hot springs (onsen). After a day on the slopes, unwind in the onsen, savor delicious meals, and share memorable stories, enjoying a fulfilling experience. Hakuba Cortina International Ski Resort offers everything you need for an exceptional skiing experience: excellent access, diverse slopes, and superb accommodation. Why not enjoy the ultimate skiing adventure surrounded by the majestic nature of Hakuba?
