Manage ReservationBreathtaking Views Beside a Mountain Lake in the Sky
Located at 2,300 meters above sea level, this mountain lodge sits on the shore of Hakuba Oike, a volcanic dam lake.
The tranquil waters of the lake are home to the rare Japanese black salamander, which hikers may spot if they are lucky. Nearby, the Raichozaka trail—named after the raichō, or “thunder bird” (a local name for the ptarmigan)—is known for occasional sightings of this elusive alpine bird. The area is blessed with rich alpine flora and breathtaking natural beauty.

Rooms and Rates
Shared Room with Bunk-Style Platforms
The room has a traditional mountain hut atmosphere. One of the best parts of staying in a mountain hut is to chat with other hikers at the shared room.

Campsite
Camping in a tent is a luxurious experience where you can have the silence and starry sky all to yourself in the middle of nature. Enjoy the fresh mountain air on the shores of Hakuba Oike Pond. The appeal is that you can travel at your own pace and fully experience a sense of accomplishment and a sense of the extraordinary.
