Donguri

Donguri is the serene hillside area between Wadano and Iwatake with beautiful mountain views. As this is a residential village, you will need to check out the bars and restaurants of nearby Happo. You can easily plan ahead with a supermarket stock-up or embrace the daily trip to Lawson (nearby convenience store) for the true Japan ski experience. Although you won’t be walking to the lifts from here, Donguri’s central location in the Hakuba Valley means you’re only a 5-minute drive to Happo One or Iwatake, and about 15 minutes to Goryu or Tsugaike. Some accommodations even include shuttle services or car hire to make getting around simple.

RESORT: none within walking distance. Closest resort is Iwatake
ACCOMM: more secluded getaway with beautiful views
FESTIVAL: Snow Machine Main Arena buses do not stop here, check if your accommodation offers shuttles or car hire

All Snow Machine packages include:

• 5 or 7 nights accommodation in Hakuba
• 4 day lift pass for Happo One, Goryu & Hakuba 47, Iwatake, Tsugaike, Norikura & Cortina
