I have come here to Hakuba with my wife, and she came last year to Niseko as a virtual beginner.. So... Here is some comparisons. Getting to resorts from Australia - The winner - Hakuba... Plane landed at 6am and in Hotel room by lunch time after taking trai

First one I went to - and I still go back to - was Sugadaira in Nagano. Good place, though very quiet not the place if you want nightlife!

Spent a season in Austria. Thats enough to get you started!

Skiing for 10 years or so
