FAQs
How do I obtain a ski liftpass for use on all of the ski fields in the Hakuba Valley?
You can purchase your lift tickets online or at the ticket office for each of the ski fields. The following link will provide all of the details for ordering your lift ticket online:
The most cost effective pass in Hakuba is the All-Mountain Season Pass which offers early bird discounts:
If you are arriving into Hakuba and using your ‘Epic Pass’ then this can be validated at the Nikayama ticket office, Gondola station or the Happo Bus terminal, just take a form of ID and you can redeem your Hakuba mountain pass for 5 consecutive days on the slopes.
Lift passes will activate as soon as you go through the turnstile, so please keep this in mind if arriving in the afternoon, as this will forfeit your full day of your pass. Please note that night skiing is also not included in the Hakuba Valley All Mountain Lift Passes but can be purchased on the evening at the chair lifts for 2,100 Yen.
Lift passes that are issued are strictly non-refundable, non-transferable and non-replaceable. If they get lost, unfortunately you will have to buy a new pass, so it is recommended to keep the lift pass in a left-side ski jacket pocket that keeps the lift pass safe. Lift passes should be kept away from metal objects such as coins and mobile phones to avoid scanning issues or deactivation.
