The cameras on this page look out over that face, so you can see the weather before you commit to a day here. Below them you get the current snow depth, new snow and the seven-day outlook for the same coordinates.

How Happo-One compares with the rest of Hakuba Valley Happo is the steepest and longest of the Hakuba Valley areas. Goryu and Hakuba 47 next door are a little gentler with more tree-lined intermediate runs; Cortina and Tsugaike sit further north and open later in the season. A Hakuba Valley pass covers all of them, so many visitors base themselves near Happo and ride elsewhere on flat-light days.
Who it suits Confident intermediates and advanced skiers get the most out of Happo, because half the mountain is genuine intermediate pitch and the upper runs steepen noticeably. Beginners still have room: about 30% of the terrain is graded beginner, and lessons run in the lower Nakiyama and Shirakaba areas. Families who want everything gentle often prefer Iwatake or Tsugaike.
Is there a live webcam at Happo-One? Yes. The cameras at the top of this page are the live feeds we track for Happo-One, and they refresh automatically while the resort is open.
When is the Happo-One season? Late November to early May in a typical year, one of the longest seasons in the valley. The 2026-27 date is on the season calendar once the resort announces it. Snow depth builds through January and peaks in February; in late March and April the upper mountain stays open after the northern Hakuba areas have closed.
