[slickasallgetout 0]

Am trying to decide whether or not to book a package to Hakuba Norikura but cannot find any info on it...cant even find if it is located in Toyama, Nagano, or Gifu...can anyone tell me anything??? How challenging is the snowboarding? How is the snowboard park? What is there to do at night? (there is no night skiing) Specs say there are 21 slopes...is it as big as it sounds? anything at all would be so much appreciated!!!

There's a guide to their courses here (not very good).

 

The resort itself is in Hakuba, Nagano, just south of Cortina. I believe you can ride at both with one ticket. I haven't actually been to Nori, but Cortina is OK.

It`s located toward the end of "Hakuba zone," just south of Cortina International. The two ski areas are connected and by paying an extra 300yen(500?)you can enjoy both places. Mostly a skier`s slope, so I`ve heard(but I`m gonna check it out this season anyway). From Toyoshina IC(the nearest highway exit)it`ll probably take you AT LEAST an hour and a half just to get there. Good luck P.S. No boardpark there except when they hold special events, so I`ve been told.

Its ok park is good when it opens big air big landings. Would be better if they opend the top part but if you are not worried about steeps and you want open slopes go there. Also you can go back and forth from Cortina. Anyways not a small place just old style.
