Hiking Happo-One: A Scenic Adventure Just Minutes from Hakuba Inn Bloom
Happo-One is the iconic mountain that rises proudly above Happo Village, a natural monument that watches over the landscape with quiet majesty. Its beauty and presence inspire many visitors to explore its unique alpine terrain.
What makes Happo-One truly special is its rare geological features, such as serpentine rock and alpine flowers, usually found at much higher elevations. Here, however, nature puts on a stunning display at accessible heights.
Your journey begins with a relaxing ride: first a gondola, followed by two ski lifts, bringing you up to around 1,830 meters. The trail begins with striking greenish clay soil, crumbled serpentine earth sculpted by wind and rain. Soon you’ll find yourself walking along gentle boardwalks, perfect for spotting delicate alpine blooms. Pause at the cairn stones, where hikers rest and enjoy the crisp mountain air.
At the summit lies Happo Pond, a crystal-clear alpine lake. On bright summer days, the surface becomes a mirror, perfectly reflecting the surrounding mountains. It’s a view you’ll never forget.
Best of all, this unforgettable hike is just a 10-minute drive or bike ride from Hakuba Inn Bloom.
