I don’t write much about Hakuba with kids because – well, so much of this area is English-friendly. During winter you’ll actually struggle to find a hotel worker or ski instructor who doesn’t speak fluenty English.
However, here is a quick list of kid-friendly spots in Hakuba for families (some places will require a car or private driver to get to.)
This is a list that I edit and add to often.
