Why Renting a Car Is the Best Way to Explore Hakuba
For guests happy to drive in winter, a rental car makes a Hakuba holiday much easier, from getting home after skiing to heading out for dinner.
- Finish skiing and head straight home. Load your gear and head home. Nearby resorts can be just 5–10 minutes from your chalet, depending on traffic and snow.
- Skip the resort shuttles. Leave when you’re ready, with no bus timetable to work around or equipment to carry to the shuttle stop.
- Park close to the lifts. Some base car parks are just 1–2 minutes from the lifts. Arrive early for the closest spaces.
- Explore more ski resorts. Add Tsugaike, Cortina, Norikura and Sanosaka to your trip, and choose where to ski as conditions change.
- Try more of Hakuba’s delicious restaurants. A car opens up dinner options across the valley, including places beyond walking distance of your chalet.
- Make a day of exploring beyond Hakuba. Visit Matsumoto Castle, the snow monkeys at Jigokudani or Zenkoji Temple in Nagano on a day off the slopes.
Hakuba Car Rental offers 4WD vehicles with snow tyres and ski racks, with pickup and drop-off options around Hakuba.

Before you book
