Hakuba Ski Lift Passes
BUY A VALLEY PASS OR NOT?
In Hakuba there are 2 types of lift passes:
1
.
Multiday/multi-resort Hakuba Valley lift pass.
2
.
A lift pass exclusively for the resort you are at.
Cost
wise
it
is
substantially
cheaper
to
NOT
use
the
Valley
pass
and
just
buy
a
day
pass
for
whichever
resort
you
happen
to
be
at
on
the
day
(see
price
comparison
chart
below).
However
most
people
prefer
to
get
the
Hakuba
Valley
lift
pass
as
you
can
put
it
in
your
pocket
and
forget
about
it-
no
need
to
go
and
get
a
new
ticket
every
day.
The
Valley
shuttle
buses
are
free
for
Vally
Pass
holders,
but
there
are
many
non
Valley
buses
that
are
free
for
everyone.
It
is
worth
noting
you
can
buy
the
Valley
Pass
at
the
ticket
window
on
the
mountains so it is not necessary to buy in advance.
